RDF and Linked Data have broad applicability across many fields, from aircraft manufacturing to zoology. Requirements for detecting bad data differ across communities, fields, and tasks, but nearly all involve some form of data validation. This book introduces data validation and describes its practical use in day-to-day data exchange. The Semantic Web offers a bold, new take on how to organize, distribute, index, and share data. Using Web addresses (URIs) as identifiers for data elements enables the construction of distributed databases on a global scale. Like the Web, the Semantic Web is heralded as an information revolution, and also like the Web, it is encumbered by data quality issues. The quality of Semantic Web data is compromised by the lack of resources for data curation, for maintenance, and for developing globally applicable data models. At the enterprise scale, these problems have conventional solutions. Master data management provides an enterprise-wide vocabulary, while constraint languages capture and enforce data structures. Filling a need long recognized by Semantic Web users, shapes languages provide models and vocabularies for expressing such structural constraints. -
Deciding SHACL Shape Containment Through Description Logics Reasoning
Deciding SHACL Shape Containment through Description Logics Reasoning Martin Leinberger1, Philipp Seifer2, Tjitze Rienstra1, Ralf Lämmel2, and Steffen Staab3;4 1 Inst. for Web Science and Technologies, University of Koblenz-Landau, Germany 2 The Software Languages Team, University of Koblenz-Landau, Germany 3 Institute for Parallel and Distributed Systems, University of Stuttgart, Germany 4 Web and Internet Science Research Group, University of Southampton, England Abstract. The Shapes Constraint Language (SHACL) allows for for- malizing constraints over RDF data graphs. A shape groups a set of constraints that may be fulfilled by nodes in the RDF graph. We investi- gate the problem of containment between SHACL shapes. One shape is contained in a second shape if every graph node meeting the constraints of the first shape also meets the constraints of the second. Todecide shape containment, we map SHACL shape graphs into description logic axioms such that shape containment can be answered by description logic reasoning. We identify several, increasingly tight syntactic restrictions of SHACL for which this approach becomes sound and complete. 1 Introduction RDF has been designed as a flexible, semi-structured data format. To ensure data quality and to allow for restricting its large flexibility in specific domains, the W3C has standardized the Shapes Constraint Language (SHACL)5. A set of SHACL shapes are represented in a shape graph. A shape graph represents constraints that only a subset of all possible RDF data graphs conform to. A SHACL processor may validate whether a given RDF data graph conforms to a given SHACL shape graph. A shape graph and a data graph that act as a running example are pre- sented in Fig. -

Using Rule-Based Reasoning for RDF Validation
Using Rule-Based Reasoning for RDF Validation Dörthe Arndt, Ben De Meester, Anastasia Dimou, Ruben Verborgh, and Erik Mannens Ghent University - imec - IDLab Sint-Pietersnieuwstraat 41, B-9000 Ghent, Belgium [email protected] Abstract. The success of the Semantic Web highly depends on its in- gredients. If we want to fully realize the vision of a machine-readable Web, it is crucial that Linked Data are actually useful for machines con- suming them. On this background it is not surprising that (Linked) Data validation is an ongoing research topic in the community. However, most approaches so far either do not consider reasoning, and thereby miss the chance of detecting implicit constraint violations, or they base them- selves on a combination of dierent formalisms, eg Description Logics combined with SPARQL. In this paper, we propose using Rule-Based Web Logics for RDF validation focusing on the concepts needed to sup- port the most common validation constraints, such as Scoped Negation As Failure (SNAF), and the predicates dened in the Rule Interchange Format (RIF). We prove the feasibility of the approach by providing an implementation in Notation3 Logic. As such, we show that rule logic can cover both validation and reasoning if it is expressive enough. Keywords: N3, RDF Validation, Rule-Based Reasoning 1 Introduction The amount of publicly available Linked Open Data (LOD) sets is constantly growing1, however, the diversity of the data employed in applications is mostly very limited: only a handful of RDF data is used frequently [27]. One of the reasons for this is that the datasets' quality and consistency varies signicantly, ranging from expensively curated to relatively low quality data [33], and thus need to be validated carefully before use. -

Definition of Data Exchange Standard for Railway Applications
PRACE NAUKOWE POLITECHNIKI WARSZAWSKIEJ z. 113 Transport 2016 6/*!1 Uniwersytet Technologiczno-:]! w Radomiu, (,? DEFINITION OF DATA EXCHANGE STANDARD FOR RAILWAY APPLICATIONS The manuscript delivered: March 2016 Abstract: Railway similar to the other branches of economy commonly uses information technologies in its business. This includes, inter alia, issues such as railway traffic management, rolling stock management, stacking timetables, information for passengers, booking and selling tickets. Variety aspects of railway operations as well as a large number of companies operating in the railway market causes that currently we use a lot of independent systems that often should work together. The lack of standards for data structures and protocols causes the need to design and maintain multiple interfaces. This approach is inefficient, time consuming and expensive. Therefore, the initiative to develop an open standard for the exchange of data for railway application was established. This new standard was named railML. The railML is based on Extensible Markup Language (XML) and uses XML Schema to define a new data exchange format and structures for data interoperability of railway applications. In this paper the current state of railML specification and the trend of development were discussed. Keywords: railway traffic control systems, railML, XML 1. INTRODUCTION It is hard to imagine the functioning of the modern world without information technologies. It is a result of numerous advantages of the modern IT solutions. One of the most important arguments for using IT systems is cost optimisation [1, 3, 6]. Variety aspects of railway operations as well as a large number of companies operating in the railway market causes that currently we use a lot of independent systems that often should cooperate. -
Finding Non-Compliances with Declarative Process Constraints Through Semantic Technologies
Finding Non-compliances with Declarative Process Constraints through Semantic Technologies Claudio Di Ciccio2, Fajar J. Ekaputra1, Alessio Cecconi2, Andreas Ekelhart1, Elmar Kiesling1 1 TU Wien, Favoritenstrasse 9-11, 1040 Vienna, Austria, [email protected] 2 WU Vienna, Welthandelsplatz 1, 1020 Vienna, Austria fclaudio.di.ciccio,[email protected] Abstract. Business process compliance checking enables organisations to assess whether their processes fulfil a given set of constraints, such as regulations, laws, or guidelines. Whilst many process analysts still rely on ad-hoc, often handcrafted per- case checks, a variety of constraint languages and approaches have been developed in recent years to provide automated compliance checking. A salient example is DE- CLARE, a well-established declarative process specification language based on tem- poral logics. DECLARE specifies the behaviour of processes through temporal rules that constrain the execution of tasks. So far, however, automated compliance check- ing approaches typically report compliance only at the aggregate level, using binary evaluations of constraints on execution traces. Consequently, their results lack gran- ular information on violations and their context, which hampers auditability of pro- cess data for analytic and forensic purposes. To address this challenge, we propose a novel approach that leverages semantic technologies for compliance checking. Our approach proceeds in two stages. First, we translate DECLARE templates into state- ments in SHACL, a graph-based constraint language. Then, we evaluate the resulting constraints on the graph-based, semantic representation of process execution logs. We demonstrate the feasibility of our approach by testing its implementation on real- world event logs. Finally, we discuss its implications and future research directions. -
JSON Application Programming Interface for Discrete Event Simulation Data Exchange
JSON Application Programming Interface for Discrete Event Simulation data exchange Ioannis Papagiannopoulos Enterprise Research Centre Faculty of Science and Engineering Design and Manufacturing Technology University of Limerick Submitted to the University of Limerick for the degree of Master of Engineering 2015 1. Supervisor: Prof. Cathal Heavey Enterprise Research Centre University of Limerick Ireland ii Abstract This research is conducted as part of a project that has the overall aim to develop an open source discrete event simulation (DES) platform that is expandable, and modular aiming to support the use of DES at multi-levels of manufacturing com- panies. The current work focuses on DES data exchange within this platform. The goal of this thesis is to develop a DES exchange interface between three different modules: (i) ManPy an open source discrete event simulation engine developed in Python on the SimPy library; (ii) A Knowledge Extraction (KE) tool used to populate the ManPy simulation engine from shop-floor data stored within an Enterprise Requirements Planning (ERP) or a Manufacturing Execution System (MES) to allow the potential for real-time simulation. The development of the tool is based on R scripting language, and different Python libraries; (iii) A Graphical User Interface (GUI) developed in JavaScript used to provide an interface in a similar manner to Commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) DES tools. In the literature review the main standards that could be used are reviewed. Based on this review and the requirements above, the data exchange format standard JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) was selected. The proposed solution accom- plishes interoperability between different modules using an open source, expand- able, and easy to adopt and maintain, in an all inclusive JSON file. -

This paper describes our tools and method for an evaluation of the practical and logical implications of combining common linked data vocabularies into a single local logical model for the purpose of reasoning or performing quality evalua- tions. These vocabularies need to be unified to form a combined model because they reference or reuse terms from other linked data vocabularies and thus the definitions of those terms must be imported. We found that strong interdependencies between vocabularies are common and that a significant number of logical and practical problems make this model unification inconsistent. In addition to identifying problems, this paper suggests a set of recommendations for linked data ontology design best practice. Finally we make some suggestions for improving OWL’s support for distributed authoring and ontology reuse. Keywords: Linked Data, Reasoning, Data Quality 1.
