Linked Data Management presents techniques for querying and managing Linked Data that is available on today’s Web. The book shows how the abundance of Linked Data can serve as fertile ground for research and commercial applications.The text focuses on aspects of managing large-scale collections of Linked Data. It offers a detailed introduction to Linked Data and related standards, including the main principles distinguishing Linked Data from standard database technology. Chapters also describe how to generate links between datasets and explain the overall architecture of data integration systems based on Linked Data. A large part of the text is devoted to query processing in different setups. After presenting methods to publish relational data as Linked Data and efficient centralized processing, the book explores lookup-based, distributed, and parallel solutions. It then addresses advanced topics, such as reasoning, and discusses work related to read-write Linked Data for system interoperation.Despite the publication of many papers since Tim Berners-Lee developed the Linked Data principles in 2006, the field lacks a comprehensive, unified overview of the state of the art. Suitable for both researchers and practitioners, this book provides a thorough, consolidated account of the new data publishing and data integration paradigm. While the book covers query processing extensively, the Linked Data abstraction furnishes more than a mechanism for collecting, integrating, and querying data from the open Web—the Linked Data technology stack also allows for controlled, sophisticated applications deployed in an enterprise environment.

The papers were submitted to three tracks: the research track, the resource track and the in-use track.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the satellite events held at the XXX Semantic Web Conference, ESWC 2025, held in Portoroz, Slovenia, during June 1–2, 2025.The 31 Posters & Demos papers are presented together with 12 PhD Symposium papers and 7 Industry papers in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 43 Posters& Demo papers, 15 PHD Symsposium papers and 14 Industry papers. The theme of  the conference was “Empowering Knowledge through Semantics: From Knowledge Graphs to Neurosemantics”. The satellite events are an important aspect of facilitating the main conference discussion as well as fundamental questions about how we acquire, represent, use, and interact with knowledge and semantics.The satellite events of ESWC 2025 include the poster and demo session, the PhD symposium, the industry track, project networking, and workshops and tutorials.
