The database, semantic web, and linked data communities have proposed solutions that federate queries over multiple data sources using a single data model. Nowadays, the data retrieval requirements originating from versatile ...

Several query federation engines have been proposed for accessing public Linked Open Data sources. However, in many domains, resources are sensitive and access to these resources is tightly controlled by stakeholders; ...

Motivation Searching for precise terms and terminological definitions in the biomedical data space is problematic, as researchers find overlapping, closely related and even equivalent concepts in a single or multiple ...

Data workflow systems (DWFSs) enable bioinformatics researchers to combine components for data access and data analytics, and to share the final data analytics approach with their collaborators. Increasingly, such systems ...

Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) is playing a key role in therapeutic decision making for the cancer prognosis and treatment. The NGS technologies are producing a massive amount of sequencing datasets. Often, these datasets ...

Semantic Web technologies are core for the integration of disparate data resources. It can be used to exploit data from next generation sequencing (NGS) for therapeutic decisions regarding cancer. In this manuscript, ...
