[edit] Lesson 1: RDF Models

[edit] Questions & Answers

• What is RDF?
  • RDF stands for "Resource Description Framework".
  • It's intention is to allow description of semantic information in a way it's processable by computers.
  • Resources are identified by URIs.
  • RDF statements consist of (subject, predicate, object).
  • A RDF model is a set of statements (about resources).
  • For further information read the RDF Primer.
• Which triple store should I use?
  • In this tutorial, we use Jena 2.4.
  • As RDF2Go is used, you can switch triple store later easily, as described in Step 2.

[edit] Prerequisites

• basic Java & RDF knowledge
• To try at home: RDF2Go (part of Semweb4j)
