Schema-Based Mapping Approach for Data Transformation to Enrich Semantic Web

Modern web wants the data to be in Resource Description Framework (RDF) format, a machine-readable form that is easy to share and reuse data without human intervention. However, most of the information is still available in relational form. The existing conventional methods transform the data from R...
