Towards a Visual SPARQL-DL Query Builder

Querying ontologies is an every-day activity that users need. This interaction will improve when the query is more expressive and easier to develop. For this purpose, a visual query language is an ideal mean for users and ontology engineers for creating queries taking advantage of the easy-to-unders...
