Review of: YARS2: A Federated Repository for Querying Graph Structured Data from the Web (Article)

5/5 (minimum 1)

by AxelPolleres on 13 Nov 2007

THis paper (nominee for best student paper award at ISWC2007) describes the YARS RDF store infrastructure which is based on a clever index structure for RDF storage that enables fast lookups and scalable distribution of huge ammounts of RDF data. It is the basis of the SWSE Semantic Web search engine. The fanfare announcement of YARS2 raised some controversy (see e.g. http://morenews.blogspot.com/2007/05/yars2.html), but it is with no doubt, one of the most competitive recent RDF store infrastructures.
