Dear Fernando, thanks a lot for your coment. I haven’t investigated other triple stores any more. Instead, we decided to use Sesame, because it is a well-known and well-documented project. Moreover, I know some other researchers using it such that I can ask them in case of questions. Also, the Sesame Forum is quite vivid.

Anyway, if there will be time, I’ll check with your two other suggestions. I once came across Mulgara, but I was recommended not to consider it for serious use as it was a fresh fork from Kowari at that time.

[...] Now we have only three real candidates: Sesame, Open Anzo and Mulgara. Unfortunately, we dropped the Jena from our list, because, it has the old annoying graph model and some problems with scalability (see more in the “RDF Triple Stores“). [...]

Hello.
The article is very good.
In our group, we are starting with something like this and we have the same problem.
Also exists an API oriented to the manipulation of OWL (OWL-API) but I think that gives no support for SPARQL. The advantage may be that has support for OWL 1.1. This the proposal for the next version of OWL.
….
We are working with Jena but we want have evaluation of others libraries, frameorks, etc.
