Semtech 2011

MarkLogic Corporation has been pursuring research that explores semantic tuple storage and querying inside its scalable database. By representing tuples as XML documents, MarkLogic has been able to efficiently store and query against large tuple sets, including running both the Billion Triple Challenge and the Lehigh University Benchmark.

MarkLogic's Director of Product Management, Stephen Buxton, and Research Scientist at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Dr. Li Ding, are speaking Tuesday June 7th at the Semtech conference in San Francisco.  They will discuss current efforts in XML representations with semantic querying, as well as work on connecting XML stores to semantic technologies via automated SPARQL to XQuery translation with Professor Jim Hendler and Dr. Li Ding.

The open-source XQuery library that provides facilities constructing efficient semantic queries is available on at http://github.com/marklogic/semantic
