Introduction
The Resource Description Framework (RDF) - developed by the World-Wide Web Consortium (W3C) - provides the foundation for metadata interoperability across different resource description communities. One of the major obstacles facing the resource description community is the multiplicity of incompatible standards for metadata syntax and schema definition languages. This has lead to the lack of, and low deployment of, cross-discipline applications and services for the resource description communities. RDF provides a solution to these
Abstract
This memorandum describes a media type (application/rdf+xml) for use with the XML serialization of the Resource Description Framework (RDF). RDF is currently used for semantically-meaningful data on the World Wide Web, and is meant to help bring about the creation of a "Semantic Web" with semantically-meaningful information which machines are better able to process.
Introduction
The World Wide Web Consortium has issued Resource Description Framework (RDF) Model and Syntax Specification [XRDF]. To enable the exchange of RDF network
This RDF document currently provides information and references for both the Resource Description Framework (RDF) Model and Syntax Specification and the Resource Description Framework (RDF) Schema Specification. References are given for articles/papers, in addition to RDF software. A more complete RDF reference collection, in many respects, is "Dave Beckett's Resource Description Framework (RDF) Resource Guide."
"RDF (Resource Description Framework) is a framework for metadata; it provides interoperability between applications that exchange
