This paper focuses on the inherent problem of intractability (data complexity) due to data capturing for heterogeneous sources. We proposed to follow the tradition of knowledge representation and reasoning processes to develop a Semantic Web. Building query systems is the ultimate goal for this study. Conjunctive queries were adopted over ontology methods to address the data complexity. The Conjunctive queries are the form of queries in first-order logic that deal with conjunction (Λ) and existential quantification (∃) in database atomic formulae. State of the art meteorological and oceanographic domain provides the motivation for this work. We found that the querying method facilitates the tractability in reasoning and logical systems.","PeriodicalId":376671,"journal":{"name":"2011 International Conference on Semantic Technology and Information Retrieval","volume":"96 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-06-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123995160","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Finally, we present the suggested approach to improve users' performance and to facilitate them to perform an effective TDT task.","PeriodicalId":376671,"journal":{"name":"2011 International Conference on Semantic Technology and Information Retrieval","volume":"384 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-06-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124774438","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite being widely spread, there are a few known attempts to build ontologies for the Arabic language. As a result, a lack of Arabic Semantic Web applications is encountered. In this paper, we propose an approach to build ontologies automatically for the Arabic language from Wikipedia. Our approach relies on the semantic field theory such that any Wikipedian article is analyzed to extract semantic relations using its infobox and the list of categories. We will also present our system architecture along with an initial evaluation to evaluate the effectiveness and correctness of the resultant ontological model.","PeriodicalId":376671,"journal":{"name":"2011 International Conference on Semantic Technology and Information Retrieval","volume":"103 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121228614","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
