Hi Giovanni,

Interesting, but what requirement is fulfilled by this?

Regards,

Introduction

Remote RDF model synchronization is a procedure by which one efficiently
updates a local model based on a remote one. By updating one can mean "make
identical to the remote" (classic RSync) but in this case it might mean
"patch" with information from a remote model not present in the current one.

Classic procedures such as RSync cannot be applied to RDF models since they
usually serialize nondeterministically. Even if a deterministic
serialization algorithm such as is used (Such as J. Carrol's canonical
serialization of RDF Graphs) , the performance of classic RSync remain poor,
as minimal modifications in the model might cause completely different
canonical serializations.

RDFSync is an efficient RDF Synchronization algorithm based on the canonical
serialization of a Minimum Self Contained graph decomposition of remote RDF
models. For further details, experimental results and demo code please

as highlighted in the short paper, some issues do remain. Looking forward
for direct feedbacks from those interested.
