What is the best programming language to develop Semantic Web Information Retrieval

[Marcus Vinícius de Lima]

Hello all,

I'm a Information Systems student, and i'm gonna start my graduation
job next year.
I chose work with Ontology Based Information Retrieval Systems.
I wanna know if there is enought auxiliar code to start developing it
in C++ or if other language could be better to use.

Thanks very much!

Dear Marcus

Java is the best  and most widely used for almost all open source solutions.. For ontology management , JENA is the best API i have seen so i recommend that u should go with java

Hello,

concerning Jena, can you tell me why do you think that Jena is the best API?
What about Sesame or OWLIM (very efficient semantic repository providing efficient inference engine)? They are also Java-based.

Hi
I agree to Danish, because jena can give us all information about ontologies and very simple to use it but I told Kolarova that I haven't Hear any thing about OWLIM and Sesame.if Tou Have Any Useful links about them,please share it
Best Wishes,
Mehdi

Hi,
I am currently working on the task to analyze and select a semantic repository that best matches my needs. So may be you will be interested to read a paper about Sesame:

http://www.openrdf.org/doc/papers/Sesame-ISWC2002.pdf

Jena is mentioned in it too. More about OWLIM can be found on http://www.ontotext.com/owlim/index.html.

When I make my decision which one to use, I will try to write some arguments.  

Please, let me know your opinion  and eventually more about your experience with some of these tools?!

Regards,
D. Kolarova

hi

I have worked with Jena and it's really good, but I must say I did
have problems with it when URIs became long. If you are a C++
programmer there is Redland RDF Libraries
http://librdf.org/

which does the job.

cheers,
ehsan

Dear Kolarova

I haven't got much experience but i am working with semantic web from last two years .. In my this tenure i have came across all these tools but i have found Jena easy to use. Protege also provides API fro ontology management but JENA is easy to use then sesame, Protege API, and others

Hi,

Thank you very much.
What about performance? Java won't be slow?

Thanks

Hi all!

I have read some papers about Jena and Sesame and for now I can not say anything about the efficiency of the tools but there significant differences in the provided functionality and the architecture of the tools. Can someone form you tell me if Jena supports features like transaction management and data versioning?
