Query Federation -- progress and next steps (All)
Minutes
kei: main topic is query federation
kei: it might be useful to incorporate pdb data (related to receptors)
bhat: yes, let's talk about it at the c-shals meeting
jun: since adrian asked whether new datasets can be added to hcls kb (Berlin), can we add some herb related data (e.g., gene-disease-herb associations)?
kei: we may also want to let the lodd group know about it to see if such data will be useful to them in the future
scott: uri mapping is important
kei: mapping uri dynamically during query execution might be interesting
kei: since rob, eric, and adrian are not here today, it's hard to discuss the current status of the demo
scott: adrian seemed to have gotten some query federation going using allegro graph
kei: we're also looking at how to create a middle layer for query federation
matthias: it might be easier and quicker to implement the demo to treat everything as one single graph
matthias: he can contact the semwiq group
kei: we might not be able to make such a complex approach before c-shals meeting.
kei: jun, what progress you made in terms of faviki
jun: one limitation with faviki is that it currently doesn't map between different languages, although different languages can be used separately for tagging
jun: also, it would be nice it supports more than dbpedia
scott: might want to look into greasemonkey
kei: we might end up describing these individual things in the context of query federation
kei: I asked jun to give a brief presentation on VoID at the next biordf call
