Querying non-materialized ontology views.
One approach to simplifying ontologies, for inclusion in a more tractable semantic web, is through the use of non-materialized view queries. View queries define how a simplified "view" or "application" ontology is derived from larger more complex ontologies. In this work we look at a language for specifying view queries over OWL/RDFS sources, and we illustrate some initial ideas for how to execute user queries over our view ontology, without materializing it first.
