Abstract

The text and the part of a graphic description of the syntax of the SPARQL structured Query Language for the Semantic Web are described in the metalanguage of normal forms of knowledge. These descriptions guarantee that the SPARQL language can be implemented, when the interpreter of the metalanguage of normal forms of knowledge is implemented. It is demonstrated that the expressive possibilities of the metalanguage of normal forms of knowledge for the formal description of the SPARQL language are quite comparable with those of the Extended BackusNaur Form Metalanguage.
