W3C Workshop on RDF Access to Relational Databases
Boston, MA, USA, 25-26 October 2007
Systems for exporting relational data to RDF have existed since the beginning of the Semantic Web. Recently, the semantic Web developers have focused on SPARQL query-rewriters and interpreters to access relational data directly. Both of these approaches share an expression of relational data in RDF. This workshop will draw members of thesemantic Web and relational database communities together to examine commonalities, distinctions and next steps for expressing relational data in RDF.
