Hi All, Sorry to come in so late to this discussion but....
It would seem that the meaning that resides in the application (or in a SPARQL query) should be part of the discussion. Even if the data identifiers have really fine readable meanings, an application can change the semantics completely. And, unless there are explanations of what the app has done, no-one will be any the wiser unless the error is egregious (eg -- the Eiffel tower is a dog). Slides 51-52 of [1] are an attempt to diagram a way of dealing with app semantics and data semantics together. -- Adrian [1] ww.reengineeringllc.com/Internet_Business_Logic_e-Government_Presentation.pdf Internet Business Logic A Wiki and SOA Endpoint for Executable Open Vocabulary English Q/A over SQL and RDF Online at www.reengineeringllc.com Shared use is free, and there are no advertisements Adrian Walker Reengineering On Mon, Jun 20, 2011 at 10:23 PM, Mark <ma...@illuminae.com> wrote: > > If you want to work with a more sophisticated API - I might suggest the >> OWL API.
