Decentralized Evolution and Consolidation of RDF Graphs
The World Wide Web and the Semantic Web are designed as a network of
distributed services and datasets. In this network and its genesis,
collaboration played and still plays a crucial role. But currently we only have
central collaboration solutions for RDF data, such as SPARQL endpoints and wiki
systems, while decentralized solutions can enable applications for many more
use-cases. Inspired by a successful distributed source code management
methodology in software engineering a framework to support distributed
evolution is proposed. The system is based on Git and provides distributed
collaboration on RDF graphs. This paper covers the formal expression of the
evolution and consolidation of distributed datasets, the synchronization, as
well as other supporting operations.Comment: ICWE 2017. arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with
