Linked Data
“Recommended best practice for exposing, sharing, and connecting pieces of data,
information and knowledge on the Semantic Web using URIs and RDF”
Bizer, Christian; Heath, Tom; Berners-Lee, Tim (2009). "Linked Data—The Story So Far" (PDF). International Journal on Semantic Web and Information Systems 5 (3): 1–22. doi:
10.4018/jswis.2009081901. ISSN 1552-6283.
Principles of Linked Data
1. Use URIs as ‘names’ for things.2. Use http protocol for those URIs3. When someone looks up a URI, provide useful
information.4. Provide links to other URIs to encourage
discovery.
A few quick definitions
URI - Uniform Resource Indicator Basic Identifier on the Web. ASCII Based.
IRI - Internationalized Resource Identifier New standard supports global languages
RDF - Resource Description Framework Method of modeling information on the web.
