Resource Description Framework

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceeding › Chapter

Abstract

This chapter introduces Resource Description Framework (RDF), the W3C recommendation for semantic annotations in the Semantic Web. It will cover the syntax and semantics of RDF, as well as its relation with the W3C OWL Web Ontology Language. To address the mismatch between RDF and OWL-DL, the most expressive decidable fragment of the OWL standard, we introduce a novel variant of RDF(S), called RDFS-FA, which provides a solid semantic foundation for many of the latest Description Logic-based SW ontology languages, such as OWL-DL and OWL2-DL.
