Mosto: Generating SPARQL executable mappings between ontologies

Abstract

Data translation is an integration task that aims at populating a target model with data of a source model, which is usually performed by means of mappings. To reduce costs, there are some techniques to automatically generate executable mappings in a given query language, which are executed using a query engine to perform the data translation task. Unfortunately, current approaches to automatically generate executable mappings are based on nested relational models, which cannot be straightforwardly applied to semantic-web ontologies due to some differences between both models. In this paper, we present Mosto, a tool to perform the data translation using automatically generated SPARQL executable mappings. In this demo, ER attendees will have an opportunity to test this automatic generation when performing the data translation task between two different versions of the DBpedia ontology. © 2011 Springer-Verlag.
