Abstract

Data management is a key factor in any software effort. Traditional solutions, such as relational databases, are rapidly losing weight in the market towards more flexible approaches and data models due to the fact that data stores as monolithic components are not valid in many current scenarios. The World Wide Consortium proposes RDF as a suitable framework for modeling, describing and linking resources on the Web. Unfortunately the current methods to access to RDF data can be considered a kind of handcrafted work. Therefore the Trioo project aims to provide powerful and flexible methods to access RDF datasets from objectoriented programming languages, allowing the usage of this data without negative influences in object-oriented designs and trying to keep the semantics of data as accurate as possible.
