All,
I wish to give users the option to request a Kevin Beacon game
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Six_Degrees_of_Kevin_Bacon> type query,
but for connections between any two resources. I don't understand all
the optimization that where necessary to enable the Faceted Query
Service, but I do recall Kingsley saying that the key is that we know
the property IRI a-priori. Would it be possible if to exclude the
property for a limited number of properties in the path and still be
able to not crash the service? For example, can people search for "All
connections between this and that, up to 4 degrees of seperation"? I
believe this is a key to serendipitous discovery.
If no enhancement to the engine is possible to acheive this without
ruining the execution time, then how do you suggest I try implementing
this with what the API already offers?
Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon is about Transitive Closure option to SPARQL
in V6 plus the ability to perform a Transitive Crawl via the Sponger.
Best you wait for some examples from the Graph Analysis functions
examples that will soon be exposed via LOD etc..
