DBLP on the Semantic Web
This is a D2R Server publishing the DBLP Bibliography Database as linked data on the Semantic Web. The database can be accessed using
- your plain old web browser
- Semantic Web browsers
- SPARQL query clients.
Note: This server publishes the November 2006 version of the DBLP dataset. There is also a D2R server at L3S - University of Hannover which publishes a weekly updated
version of the DBLP bibliography. If you want to set RDF links to DBLP data, it is therefore recommended to link to URIs from the Hannover server.
The DBLP database provides bibliographic information on major computer science journals and conference proceedings including the WWW2006. The database contains more than 800.000 articles and 400.000 authors. This D2R Server is based on the XML dump of the DBLP database, which has been read into a MySQL database. The complete RDF view on the database consists of approximately 15 million RDF triples, which are served in small easily consumable chunks. To conserve computing resources, some lists and query results are restricted to 500 items.
This is a non-commercial, research demonstration run by the Web-based Systems Group @ Freie Univeristät Berlin. The demonstration shows how large relational databases are published as linked data on the Semantic Web. This demonstration is in no way meant as an alternative to the great service provided by Michael Ley on the DBLP homepage.
