At OST we use semantic technology to improve the way data is organised and queried. Through the novel designs and concepts which underpin RDFox, a high performance knowledge graph and semantic reasoning engine, OST are enabling development across a broad range of sectors and industries.

This article will provide an up to date list of articles published by our team, so you can quickly find what you are after! It includes a series of articles on RDFox, it’s application, and the role of reasoning.

The resources are organised by theme:

  • Getting Started Materials
  • RDFox and Reasoning
  • RDFox Power User Articles
  • RDFox in Practise (use cases and whitepapers)
  • Meet the Founders Series
  • Videos
  • Academic Papers
  • Third Party Papers
  • Press

Team and Resources

The team behind Oxford Semantic Technologies started working on RDFox in 2011 at the Computer Science Department of the University of Oxford with the conviction that flexible and high-performance reasoning was a possibility for data intensive applications without jeopardising the correctness of the results. RDFox is the first market-ready knowledge graph designed from the ground up with reasoning in mind. Oxford Semantic Technologies is a spin out of the University of Oxford and is backed by leading investors including Samsung Venture Investment Corporation (SVIC), Oxford Sciences Innovation (OSI) and Oxford University’s investment arm (OUI). The author is proud to be a member of this team.
