I will soon put my full attention to writing a very simple introduction to SPARQL that will make these demos much easier to understand. For now though, this is fundamentally about demonstrating a query solution production workflow that involves —

  1. Query Parsing
  2. Cost Analysis & Solution Plan Building that includes Image-Processing
  3. Data Visualization using an HTML5 & Javascript page
