Jena README
===========

Welcome to Apache Jena, a Java framework for writing Semantic Web applications.

See http://jena.apache.org/ for the project website, including documentation.

The Jena Framework includes:

+ an API for reading, processing and writing RDF data in XML, N-triples and Turtle formats;
+ an ontology API for handling OWL and RDFS ontologies;
+ a rule-based inference engine for reasoning with RDF and OWL data sources;
+ stores to allow large numbers of RDF triples to be efficiently stored on disk;
+ a query engine compliant with the latest SPARQL specification
+ a server to allow RDF data to be published to other applications using SPARQL

The codebase for the active modules is to be found under:
