SUITS4RDF: Incremental query construction for the Semantic Web

With the advance of the Semantic Web technology, increasing data will be annotated with computer understandable structures (i.e. RDF and OWL), which allow us to use more expressive queries to improve our ability in information seeking. However, constructing a structured query is a laborious process, as a user has to master the query language as well as the underlying schema of the queried data. In this demo, we introduce SUITS4RDF, a novel interface for constructing structured queries for the Semantic Web. It allows users to start with arbitrary keyword queries and to enrich them incrementally with an arbitrary but valid structure, using computer suggested queries or query components. This interface allows querying the Semantic Web conveniently and efficiently, while enabling users to express their intent precisely.
