Abstract
The paper presents ALASKA, a multi-layered platform enabling to perform ontological conjunctive query answering (OCQA) over heterogeneously-stored knowledge bases in a generic, logic-based manner. While this problem knows today a renewed interest in knowledge-based systems with the semantic equivalence of different languages widely studied, from a practical view point this equivalence has been not made explicit. Moreover, the emergence of graph database provides competitive storage methods not yet addressed by existing literature.
