I'm happy about having received the Best Demo Paper Award 🏆 at the European Semantic Web Conference (ESWC). This is for a paper about the extension of our query federation engine HeFQUIN with the capability to integrate virtual knowledge views of data from Web/REST APIs as federation members.

📣 Postdoc position on Virtual Knowledge Graph Integration at Linköping University I'm looking for a postdoc to actively lead research in two complementary projects on foundations & techniques for querying federations of KG views of heterogeneous data sources. 👉 Further info: liu.se/en/work-at-l...

Finally, our VLDB paper is out: "Exploring Exploratory Querying." — A research vision related to a new way of querying, including new types of users. vldb.org/pvldb/volume... This paper is the result of discussions we had during a Shonan meeting late last year.

@olafhartig.bsky.social och hans forskargrupp har en vision om att man ska kunna samla information som i dag ligger utspridd på webben inom en organisation. Det ska ske virtuellt, så att varje aktör behåller kontrollen över sin egen information #forskning #vetenskap tinyurl.com/z9ds5ku8

@olafhartig.bsky.social and his #research team have a vision that we should be able to bring together information that is currently scattered across the Web by integrating the info virtually so that each player retains control over their own information #science @liu.se tinyurl.com/yssef6u3

Super glad to receive the Best Research Paper Award at #ESWC2025 together with Sitt Min Oo for our work on providing a formal foundation for mapping languages for Knowledge Graph construction.

The @liu.se Semantic Web gang at the #ESWC2025 conference.

Related to our approach to represent and to query lists as composite values in RDF-based Knowledge Graphs, I developed a tool to convert RDF files in which lists are represented as RDF collections (rdf:List) into files that use our cdt:List approach. Repo and download: github.com/hartig/SPARQ...

Researching graph databases, SPARQL engines, or stores for Knowledge Graphs? Submit to TGDK Special Issue: Data Management for (Knowledge) Graphs. Deadline July 1st, 2025. Resources, experience reports and extended workshop/conference papers welcome. CfP: bit.ly/4luAUXZ

So far, declarative mapping languages for knowledge graph construction (RML and the likes) have lacked a solid formal foundation 😶‍🌫️ ⚡ Our latest work, accepted for #ESWC2025, changes that: We introduce an algebra for mappings, provide a formal semantics for RML, and more. 🔎 arxiv.org/abs/2503.10385

Although they exist since more than ten years already, have attracted diverse implementations, and have been used successfully in a significant number of applications, declarative mapping languages fo...

In a recent #Dagstuhl seminar we developed a research roadmap towards Computer-Using Personal Agents (CUPAs), automating complex tasks like today's Computer-Using Agents, but including context via controlled access to personal knowledge graphs.

I just saw that DBLP (@dblp.org) has recently started to provide a public query service for everyone to run SPARQL queries over their database with information about computer science publications. Each author page includes links to relevant example queries. Very nice! blog.dblp.org/2024/09/09/i...

Thank you all for a great week in #Dagstuhl, here's the traditional photo 😉 www.dagstuhl.de/25051
