Generating OWL ontologies from a relational databases for the semantic web

Sunita S. Sane, Archana Shirke · 2009

Web has given rise to vast unstructured and structured data and document. The vast information at different points of time needs to be accessed in meaningful way. Hence conversion of the current data into semantic web is the order of the day. The approach proposed in this paper helps to generate OWL-like definition which consists of classes, properties (Data & Object), restriction and instances from relational database model. This approach not only saves efforts in developing the semantic web from scratch but it also makes the vast amount of relational information on the web machine process able.
