Data modeling translation system
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- receiving a semantic query, wherein the semantic query is formatted using a first ontology;
retrieving a transitive mapping between the first ontology and a second ontology;
translating a first element of the semantic query from the format of the first ontology to a second element of the second ontology in accordance with the transitive map;
parsing a relational database to Resource Description Format (R2RML) mapping to determine a set of database tables that include the second element, the R2RML mapping associated with the second ontology;
directing an execution of the semantic query to the set of database tables in accordance with the R2RML mapping to retrieve data associated with the second element; and
storing the results of the executed query in a triple format, the stored results formatted using the first ontology.

Abstract
A method may include receiving a semantic query, wherein the semantic query is formatted using a first ontology; retrieving a transitive mapping between the first ontology and a second ontology; translating a first element of the semantic query from the format of the first ontology to a second element of the second ontology in accordance with the transitive map; parsing a relational database to Resource Description Format (R2RML) mapping to determine a set of database tables that include the second element; directing an execution of the semantic query to the set of database tables in accordance with the R2RML mapping; and storing the results of the executed query in a tripe format, the stored results formatted using the first ontology.
