OWL SAIQL - An OWL DL query language for ontology extraction

Alexander Kubias, Simon Schenk, Steffen Staab, Jeff Z. Pan · 2007

Abstract. Existing approaches for querying OWL DL do either only operate on syntactic constructs without taking into account the semantics of OWL or do only have a restricted access to the T-Box. We present SAIQL, the novel Schema And Instance Query Language for OWL DL, that is well suited for ontology extraction. We describe its syntax and explain a basic evaluation strategy. We illustrate the use of SAIQL with an example for ontology extraction and re-use.
