Abstract
The central idea of the Web of Data is to interlink the information available in the Web, most of which is actually stored in databases rather than in static HTML pages. Tools to convert relational data into semantic web formats and publish then as linked data are essential to fulfill the vision of a web of data available for automatic processing, as web content is currently available to humans. This paper presents DaPress, a simple tool to publish linked data on the Web, that maps a relational database to an RDF triplestore and creates a SPARQL access point. The paper reports the use of DaPress to publish the database of Authenticus, a system that automatically assigns publication authors to known Portuguese researchers and institutions. © Teresa Costa and José Paulo Leal.
