Download as PPT, PDF3 likes25,750 views
The document discusses the necessity of establishing a W3C community group focused on RDF stream processing, addressing the heterogeneity in RDF stream models, query languages, and implementation approaches. It highlights the mission of the group to create a unified framework for producing, transmitting, and continuously querying RDF streams while accommodating the dynamic nature of graph-based data. Additionally, the document outlines the importance of collaboration and input from the community in defining use cases and enhancing semantic stream processing capabilities.
![A template to describe use cases (I)
•
Streaming Information
•
•
•
•
•
•
Type: Environmental data: temperatures, pressures, salinity, acidity, fluid
velocities etc,
Nature:
• Relational Stream: yes
• Text stream: no
Origin: Data is produced by sensors in oil wells and on oil and gas
platforms equipments. Each oil platform has an average of 400.000.
Frequency of update:
• from sub-second to minutes
• In triples/minute: [10000-10] t/min
Quality: It varies, due to instrument/sensor issues
Management /access
• Technology in use: Dedicated (relational and proprietary) stores
• Problems: The ability of users to access data from different sources is
limited by an insufficient description of the context
• Means of improvement: Add context (metadata) to the data so it
become meaningful and use reasoning techniques to process that
metadata

OrdRing 2013 keynote - On the need for a W3C community group on RDF Stream Processing
- 1. On the need for a W3C community group on RDF Stream Processing ISWC2013 Workshop on Ordering and Reasoning, Sydney, 22/10/2013 Oscar Corcho [email protected], [email protected] @ocorcho http://www.slideshare.net/ocorcho/
- 2. Disclaimer… This presentation expresses my view but not necessarily the one from the rest of the group (although I hope that it is similar) <<Texto libre: proyecto, speaker, etc.>> 2
- 3. Acknowledgements • All those that I have “stolen” slides, material and ideas from • • • • • Emanuele Della Valle Daniele Dell’Aglio Marco Balduini Jean Paul Calbimonte And many others who have already started contributing… <<Texto libre: proyecto, speaker, etc.>> 3
- 4. Why setting up a community group? In RDF Stream models (timestamps, events, time intervals, triple-based, graph-based …) In RDF Stream query languages (windows, stream selection, CEP-based operators, …) Heterogeneity In implementations (RDF native, query rewriting, continuous query registration, scalability, static vs streaming data…) <<Texto libre: proyecto, speaker, etc.>> 4 In operational semantics (tick, window content, report)
- 5. You may think that we do not like heterogeneity… <<Texto libre: proyecto, speaker, etc.>> 5
- 6. But at least I love it… • However, we need to tell people what to expect with each system, and smooth differences when they are not crucial…… <<Texto libre: proyecto, speaker, etc.>> 6
- 7. The solution… • Let’s create a W3C community group… • • • • • To understand better those differences The requirements on which we are based And explain to others … And maybe get some “recommendation” out <<Texto libre: proyecto, speaker, etc.>> 7
- 8. The W3C RDF Stream Processing Comm. Group • http://www.w3.org/community/rsp/ <<Texto libre: proyecto, speaker, etc.>> 8
- 9. W3C RSP Community Group mission “The mission of the RDF Stream Processing Community Group (RSP) is to define a common model for producing, transmitting and continuously querying RDF Streams. This includes extensions to both RDF and SPARQL for representing streaming data, as well as their semantics. Moreover this work envisions an ecosystem of streaming and static RDF data sources whose data can be combined through standard models, languages and protocols. Complementary to related work in the area of databases, this Community Group looks at the dynamic properties of graph-based data, i.e., graphs that are produced over time and which may change their shape and data over time.” <<Texto libre: proyecto, speaker, etc.>> 9
- 10. Use cases • We have started collecting them • And I hope that by the end of my talk you will consider contributing some more… <<Texto libre: proyecto, speaker, etc.>> 10

- 14. Heterogeneity #1: Representing RDF Streams <<Texto libre: proyecto, speaker, etc.>> 14
- 15. What is an RDF stream? • Several possibilities: • An RDF stream is an infinite sequence of timestamped events (triples or graphs), where timestamps are nondecreasing … <eventi,ti > <eventi+1,ti+1 > <eventi+2,ti+2 > … • An RDF stream is an infinite sequence of triple occurrences <<s,p,o>,tα,tω> where <s,p,o> is an RDF triple and tα and tω are the start and end of the interval • How are timestamps assigned?
- 16. Some examples… • What would be the best/possible RDF stream representation for the following types of problems? • Does Alice meet Bob before Carl? • Who does Carl meet first? :alice :isWith :bob :alice :isWith :carl e1 :diana :isWith :carl :bob :isWith :diana e2 e3 e4 • How many people has Alice met in the last 5m? • Does Diana meet Bob and then Carl within 5m? 1 3 6 9 t • Which are the meetings the last less than 5m? • Which are the meetings with conflicts? :alice :isWith :bob :alice :isWith :carl :bob :isWith :diana :diana :isWith :carl e4 e2 e1 <<Texto libre: proyecto, speaker, etc.>> e3 16
- 17. Data types for semantic streams - Summary • Multiple notions of RDF stream proposed • Ordered sequence (implicit timestamp) • One timestamp per triple (point in time semantics) • Two timestamps per triple (interval base semantics) • Comparison between existing approaches System Time model # of timestamps INSTANS triple Implicit 0 C-SPARQL triple Point in time 1 SPARQLstream triple Point in time 1 CQELS triple Point in time 1 Sparkwave triple Point in time 1 Streaming Linked Data RDF graph Point in time 1 ETALIS • Data item triple Interval 2 More investigation is required to agree on an RDF stream model 17
