The field of Geographical Information Systems (GIS) has experienced a rapid and ongoing
growth of available sources for geospatial data. This growth has demanded more data …

One of the main challenges that the Semantic Web faces is the integration of a growing
number of independently designed ontologies. In this work, we present PARIS, an approach …

By specifying that published datasets must link to other existing datasets, the 4th linked data
principle ensures a Web of data and not just a set of unconnected data islands. The authors …

With respect to large-scale, static, Linked Data corpora, in this paper we discuss scalable
and distributed methods for entity consolidation (aka. smushing, entity resolution, object …

With the recent publication of large quantities of RDF data, the Semantic Web now allows
concrete applications to be developed. Multiple datasets are effectively published according …

It has been argued that linked open data is the major benefit of semantic technologies for the
web as it provides a huge amount of structured data that can be accessed in a more effective …

Exploiting identity links among RDF resources allows applications to efficiently integrate
data. Keys can be very useful to discover these identity links. A set of properties is …

One of the most significant challenges in cities concerns urban mobility. Urban mobility
involves the use of different modes of transport, which can be individual or collective, and …

In this paper, we argue that query relaxation over RDF data is an important but largely
overlooked research topic: the Semantic Web standards allow for answering crisp queries …

Over the last years, time-efficient approaches for the discovery of links between knowledge
bases have been regarded as a key requirement towards implementing the idea of a Data …
