Abstract
Resource Description Format (RDF) stores have formed an essential
part of many semantic web applications. Current RDF store
systems have primarily focused on efficiently storing and querying
large numbers of triples. Little attention has been given to
how triples would be updated and maintained or how access to
store can be controlled. In this paper we describe the motivation
for an RDF store with complete maintenance capabilities and
access control. We propose a policy based access control model
providing control over the various actions possible on an RDF
store. Finally, we discuss on how the Hypertext Transport Protocol
(HTTP) and its extensions can be used to provide communication
with the store.
