Paper Abstract:
|
The Web is the main channel for circulating information in modern society. Such information can be found in various storage media, therefore an interface is needed to retrieve it. As a simple and effective technique, keyword-based querying has proved ideal for this purpose and has become the interaction standard between users and the Web. However, most of the information found on the Web is currently stored in relational databases, and such repositories offer limited support for keyword-based queries. Performing queries in relational databases requires knowledge of storage structures and syntax of a structured language, and both are not familiar to the majority of users. Given keyword-based queries, this study presents a method that integrates search and selection of relational databases available on the Web, and semantic query processing to retrieve relevant information to the user. |
