Abstract
This paper proposes an effective mechanism to visually construct Semantic Query based on Semantic Browser for query processing in Dart Database Grid. With our approach, distributed database resources are dynamically mapped to a mediated Web Ontology and we can build a universal and intuitive conceptual view against the ontology. Complex query construction is reduced to a set of direct and convenient interactions in the visual semantic view of Semantic Browser and end-users can gain useful information from Database Grid by performing visual Semantic Query operations.
