Best Practice Recipes for Publishing RDF Vocabularies

This document describes best practice recipes for publishing vocabularies or ontologies on the Web (in RDF Schema or OWL ). The features of each recipe are described in detail, so that vocabulary designers may choose the recipe best suited to their needs. Each recipe introduces general principles and an example configuration for use with an Apache HTTP server (which may be adapted to other environments). http://www.w3.org/TR/swbp-vocab-pub/

Tag URI

Purpose The tag algorithm lets people mint — create — identifiers that no one else using the same algorithm could ever mint. It is simple enough to do in your head, and the resulting identifiers can be easy to read, write, and remember. The identifiers conform to the URI (URL) Syntax . Compatibility with RFC 2822 email addresses: there was discussion on uri@w3.org about how to upgrade the tag scheme's syntax for better compatibility with RFC 2822 email addresses. This change didn't make it into the RFC. http://www.taguri.org/

IT Conversations: Elias Torres

Elias Torres, a senior software engineer at IBM and a member of several W3C working groups, gives us an overview of the Semantic Web and how RDF and SPARQL are set to become the tools of choice when extracting data from the World Wide Web. In an interview, hosted by Phil Windley, Torres discusses what has happened to this technology in the past, where it is hopefully going in the near future, and what you can do today to take advantage of it. Resource Description Framework (RDF) is a language specification for representing information about resources on the Web. Often referred to as "the triples," RDF relates data objects to one another using a three part syntax of subject, predicate, and object. For example, a car's paint color could be represented as Vehicle.Color.Red. http://itc.conversationsnetwork.org/shows/detail1162.html

Semantic Web: Why RDF is more than XML

Up to Design Issues This note is an attempt to answer the question, "Why should I use RDF - why not just XML?". This has been a question which has been around ever since RDF started.
