Annotation -
A course introduces theoretical and practical aspects of Semantic Web technologies used in areas of chemical and biological databases. The Semantic Web was meant to address data interoperability. The interoperability is achieved by the conceptualization of data and storing them according to standardized rules. The key is the creation of ontologies that describe data organizations in various scientific domains. The theoretical part of the lecture is focused on Semantic Web technologies allowing storing, accessing, querying and processing of data. Whereas the practical part of the lecture is focused on ontologies used in chemical and biological databases build on these technologies.

Aim of the course -

Students will know:

  • Basics principles of semantic databases (in particular Resource Description Framework)
  • The SPARQL query language to select data from databases
  • Federated queries to combine data originating from different databases
  • RDFS and OWL languages to understand data ontologies
  • Selected chemical and biological databases and their ontologies
