An Automatic Database Generation and Ontology Mapping from OWL File

To promote ontology application development, some of the technical processes should be simplified with a supportive tool and an automatic method. This work presents a method to automatically generate a database schema from OWL file to prevent schema conflicts. Moreover, a mapping configuration can be created to associate an ontology and the generated data schema within the process. This method is designed to be compatible with an existing Ontology Application Management (OAM) Framework. With the proposed method, ontology labels are used to name data field name in database generation. The method allows any languages for ontology labels, but English ontology labels are recommended in this work since table names will be understandable. From testing, the produced mapping configuration to map ontology schema to database schema worked equivalently to human in terms of correctness but much faster in time consuming.
