Abstract: The Semantic Web technologies have just recently urged the need to touch and reinterpret many application areas. On the other side, there are currently few systems for normalization of relations within a database, which are also rarely used, either by database designers, or as a teaching aid at universities. This paper introduces a system for normalization of relations as integral part of the machine-understandable knowledge base on the Web, as conceived by the Semantic Web. We have adopted the semantics for the ontology layer of our normalization system and made some findings regarding the rule layer of our system. The main challenges appear at the rule layer, since there is not a single rule system which satisfies all of our needs. The solutions are provided in different rule systems, mainly on the Semantic Web Rule Language, for issues like: knowledge base modifications, negation, open world assumption, and disjunction.
