Description

The [SPARQL-DL] query engine is settled on top of the OWL API. The library is fully aligned with the OWL 2 standard and adds a SPARQL-DL interface to every OWL API 3 reasoner. The SPARQL-DL query language is a distinct subset of SPARQL. The subset is tailored to ontology specific questions which typically come into focus when dealing with OWL. SPARQL-DL is a quite expressive language which particularly allows to mix TBox, RBox, and ABox queries.
