Topic Map Query Language (TMQL)

As an element of semantic web technology, topic maps are constantly changing. Topic Map Query Language has to be able to go in and get data from these maps effectively. Topic Map Query Language uses two specific processes – one is information retrieval, and the other is information filtering. Through these combined approaches, Topic Map Query Language allows for data mining and related processes that apply to the topic map, where conventional SQL is applied to the relational database.
