RDF data in property graph model

Abstract

This paper proposes a formalization of the Property Graphs (PG) model, which now does not have a commonly agreed-upon formal definition. The paper shows how to store Resource Description Framework (RDF) triples in the form that can be easily processable in PG databases. We propose methods for mapping from one model to another. This is important because of existing many graph databases, in which we enable to load RDF data. Moreover, we propose a new serialization, called YARS, for RDF that is compatible with PG solutions.
