RDF

RDF is a framework for describing Web resources, such as the title, author, modification date, content, and copyright information of a Web page.The Resource Description Framework (RDF) is a family of World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) specifications originally designed as a metadata data model. It has come to be used as a general method for conceptual description or modeling of information that is implemented in web resources, using a variety of syntax formats.

RDF extends the linking structure of the Web to use URIs to name the relationship between things as well as the two ends of the link (this is usually referred to as a “triple”). Using this simple model, it allows structured and semi-structured data to be mixed, exposed, and shared across different applications.

HISTORY OF RDF

There were several ancestors to the W3C's RDF. Technically the closest was MCF, a project initiated by Ramanathan V. Guha while at Apple Computer and continued, with contributions from Tim Bray, during his tenure at Netscape Communications Corporation. Ideas from the Dublin Core community, and from PICS, the Platform for Internet Content Selection (the W3C's early Web content labeling system) were also key in shaping the direction of the RDF project.

The W3C published a specification of RDF's data model and XML syntax as a Recommendation in 1999. Work then began on a new version that was published as a set of related specifications in 2004. While there are a few implementations based on the 1999 Recommendation that have yet to be completely updated, adoption of the improved specifications has been rapid since they were developed in full public view, unlike some earlier technologies of the W3C. Most newcomers to RDF are unaware that the older specifications even exist.


 * Hello,


 * This is a good beginning. You may continue forward by breaking your writing into many little pieces, say a few words or at most one short sentence in each piece.  Then locate and read some existing articles on wiki that are somehow relevant to a given piece.  Very Carefully and patiently, decide where in a particular related wiki article your first short piece fits.  Add that short piece right in there at its most appropriate point and place in that article, of course.  Continue the same way for your other pieces.


 * Did you notice articles have a "discussion" page where previous contributors have communicated things. It's always a good idea to have at least an overal observation of what are said, before you apply a new modification to the article.
