> Dear all,

> With this mail, we announce the public release of Comunica,
> a modular framework for JavaScript and the Web
> that can be used to compose a SPARQL Query Engine.
> 
> Comunica is a flexible query engine framework
> that allows plugging in and out different algorithms and implementations. .
> Separate modules exist for handling different SPARQL operators,
> and Comunica allows different implementations of such modules
> to be swapped in without having to change any code.
> Using semantic configuration files, Comunica can be instantiated
> into engines that use a specified set of modules.
> This is great for Web applications which only need a subset of features,
> and for research purposes, when you want to compare different algorithms.
> 
> Comunica is able to federate over heterogeneous interfaces,
> so you can execute a query over a federation of
> TPF interfaces, SPARQL endpoints, raw RDF files, etc.
> Comunica thereby acts as the successor
> of the current Linked Data Fragments client.
> 
> If you are interested in querying Linked Data on the Web,
> we invite you to try out Comunica:
> http://comunica.linkeddatafragments.org/
> or even collaborate on the development of its modules.
> 
> Comunica will be presented at the ISWC 2018 resources track.
