Resource Description Framework (RDF) §

• W3C Standard
• Resources are identified by unique identifiers (URIs)
• A RDF Store (or triple store) stores and retrieves Triples
• Each Statement consits of a Subject, Predicate and Object
• Uses the SPARQL Query Language
• Allows only one relation of the same type between nodes
• Allows only properties no nodes, not relationships, unlike LPG
