Abstract:
Oxford University Department of Computer Science has developed an RDF triple store optimized for large scale data analysis. It uses a profile of OWL called OWL2 RL. It uses Datalog language and can materialize data on multiple threads. We will explain how this was used to calculate HEDIS diabetes quality measures in one region of Kaiser Permanente.
