Abstract
Large Language Models (LLMs) have taken Knowledge Representation - and the world - by storm. This inflection point marks a shift from explicit knowledge representation to a renewed focus on the hybrid representation of both explicit knowledge and parametric knowledge. In this position paper, we will discuss some of the common debate points within the community on LLMs (parametric knowledge) and Knowledge Graphs (explicit knowledge) and speculate on opportunities and visions that the renewed focus brings, as well as related research topics and challenges.

How Does Knowledge Evolve in Open Knowledge Graphs?

Authors: Axel Polleres, Romana Pernisch, Angela Bonifati, Daniele Dell'Aglio, Daniil Dobriy, Stefania Dumbrava, Lorena Etcheverry, Nicolas Ferranti, Katja Hose, Ernesto Jiménez-Ruiz, Matteo Lissandrini, Ansgar Scherp, Riccardo Tommasini, and Johannes Wachs

Abstract
Openly available, collaboratively edited Knowledge Graphs (KGs) are key platforms for the collective management of evolving knowledge. The present work aims t o provide an analysis of the obstacles related to investigating and processing specifically this central aspect of evolution in KGs. To this end, we discuss (i) the dimensions of evolution in KGs, (ii) the observability of evolution in existing, open, collaboratively constructed Knowledge Graphs over time, and (iii) possible metrics to analyse this evolution. We provide an overview of relevant state-of-the-art research, ranging from metrics developed for Knowledge Graphs specifically to potential methods from related fields such as network science. Additionally, we discuss technical approaches - and their current limitations - related to storing, analysing and processing large and evolving KGs in terms of handling typical KG downstream tasks.

Big Graph Processing Systems (Dagstuhl Seminar 19491)

Authors: Angela Bonifati, Alexandru Iosup, Sherif Sakr, and Hannes Voigt

Published in: Dagstuhl Reports, Volume 9, Issue 12 (2020)


Abstract
This report documents the program and the outcomes of Dagstuhl Seminar 19491 "Big Graph Processing Systems". We are just beginning to understand the role graph processing could play in our society. Data is not just getting bigger, but, crucially, also more connected. Exploring, describing, predicting, and explaining real- and digital-world phenomena is increasingly relying on abstractions that can express interconnectedness. Graphs are such an abstraction. They can model naturally the complex relationships, interactions, and interdependencies between objects. However, after initial success, graph processing systems are struggling to cope with the new scale, diversity, and other real-world needs. The Dagstuhl Seminar 19491 aims to addresses the question: How could the next decade look like for graph processing systems? To identify the opportunities and challenges of graph processing systems over the next decade, we met in December 2019 with circa 40 high-quality and diverse researchers for the Dagstuhl Seminar on Big Graph Processing Systems. A main strength of this seminar is the combination of the data management and large-scale systems communities. The seminar was successful, and addressed in particular topics around graph processing systems: ecosystems, abstractions and other fundamental theory, and performance.

An In-Memory XQuery/XPath Engine over a Compressed Structured Text Representation

Authors: Angela Bonifati, Gregory Leighton, Veli Mäkinen, Sebastian Maneth, Gonzalo Navarro, and Andrea Pugliese

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 8261, Structure-Based Compression of Complex Massive Data (2008)


Abstract
We describe the architecture and main algorithmic design decisions for an XQuery/XPath processing engine over XML collections which will be represented using a self-indexing approach, that is, a compressed representation that will allow for basic searching and navigational operations in compressed form. The goal is a structure that occupies little space and thus permits manipulating large collections in main memory.

Optimizing XML Compression in XQueC

Authors: Andrei Arion, Angela Bonifati, Ioana Manolescu, and Andrea Pugliese

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 8261, Structure-Based Compression of Complex Massive Data (2008)


Abstract
We present our approach to the problem of optimizing compression choices in the context of the XQueC compressed XML database system. In XQueC, data items are aggregated into containers, which are further grouped to be compressed together. This way, XQueC is able to exploit data commonalities and to perform query evaluation in the compressed domain, with the aim of improving both compression and querying performance. However, different compression algorithms have different performance and support different sets of operations in the compressed domain. Therefore, choosing how to group containers and which compression algorithm to apply to each group is a challenging issue. We address this problem through an appropriate cost model and a suitable blend of heuristics which, based on a given query workload, are capable of driving appropriate compression choices.

The XQueC Project: Compressing and Querying XML

Authors: Andrei Arion, Angela Bonifati, Ioana Manolescu, and Andrea Pugliese

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 8261, Structure-Based Compression of Complex Massive Data (2008)


Abstract
We outline in this paper the main contributions of the XQueC project. XQueC, namely XQuery processor and Compressor, is the first compression tool to seamlessly allow XQuery queries in the compressed domain. It includes a set of data structures, that basically shred the XML document into suitable chunks linked to each other, thus disagreeing with the ’homomorphic’ principle so far adopted in previous XML compressors. According to this principle, the compressed document is homomorphic to the original document. Moreover, in order to avoid the time consumption due to compressing and decompressing intermediate query results, XQueC applies ‘lazy’ decompression by issuing the queries directly in the compressed domain.

06431 Working Group Summary: P2P, Ad Hoc and Sensor Networks – All the Different or All the Same?

Authors: Peter A. Boncz, Angela Bonifati, Joos-Hendrik Böse, Stefan Böttcher, Panos Kypros Chrysanthis, Le Gruenwald, Arantza Illarramendi, Peter Janacik, Birgitta König-Ries, Wolfgang May, Anirban Mondal, Sebastian Obermeier, Aris Ouksel, and George Samaras

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 6431, Scalable Data Management in Evolving Networks (2007)


Abstract
Currently, data management technologies are in the process of finding their way into evolving networks, i.e. P2P, ad hoc and wireless sensor networks. We examine the properties, differences and commonalities of the different types of evolving networks, in order to enable the development of adequate technologies suiting their characteristics. We start with presenting definitions for the different network types, before arranging them in a network hierarchy, to gain a clear view of the area. Then, we analyze and compare the example applications for each of the types using different design dimensions. Based on this work, we finally present a comparison of P2P, ad hoc and wireless sensor networks.
