9. The four principles (Tim Berners Lee, 2006)
http://www.w3.org/Des ignIs s ues /LinkedData.
1. Use URIs as names html
for things http://www.ted.com/talks /tim_berners _lee_on
2. Use HTTP URIs so _the_next_web.html
that people can look
up those names.
3. When someone looks
up a URI, provide
useful information,
using the standards
(RDF*, SPARQL)
4. Include links to other
URIs, so that they can
discover more things.

10. Resource Description Framework (RDF)
• RDF is a basic KR language based on semantic networks
• Useful to represent metadata and describe any type of
information in a machine-accesible way.

11. RDF - SPARQL
“Boris Villazón Terrazas”
person:hasName
person:hasColleague
upm:Boris eurecom:Ghislain
person:hasColleague
eurecom:Raphael “Male”
person:hasSex
• Query: “Tell me who are the persons who have Ghislain as colleague”
person:hasColleague
? eurecom:Ghislain
• Result: upm:Boris and eurecom:Raphael
• SPARQL query language for RDF. W3C recommendation
SELECT ?s
WHERE { ?s person:hasColleague eurecom:Ghislain . }
