Abstract

Semantic Reasoners are the set of applications that can provide inferences over semantic data sets. As the types of data ontologies, the amount of instance data based on those ontologies, and the type of required inferences grow, the problem of reasoning becomes increasingly difficult. Linking of the Data within the enterprise as with the case of external data explodes the scaling problem. In this chapter, we look at various reasoning techniques and how to assure that they can scale properly so that Linking Data results in additional knowledge.
