	Resource Description Framework (RDF) Schema Specification
		RDF and the RDF Schema language were also based on metadata research in the the Digital Library community.
		RDF represents an evolution of the Warwick Framework model in that the Warwick Framework allowed each metadata vocabulary to be represented in a different syntax.
		This indicates that a resource is a member of a class, and thus has all the characteristics that are to be expected of a member of that class.

	Resource Description Framework (RDF) / W3C Semantic Web Activity
		While the RDF specs provide the most in-depth details about RDF, a number of shorter overviews and presentations are also available, for developers and for a general audience.
		RDF is an enabling technology for a wide variety of projects.

	Resource Description Framework: The Complete Documentation
		However, by generalizing the concept of a "Web resource", RDF can also be used to represent information about things that can be identified on the Web, even when they can't be directly retrieved on the Web.
		RDF provides a common framework for expressing this information so it can be exchanged between applications without loss of meaning.
		This is a specification of a precise semantics for RDF and RDFS, and of corresponding entailment and inference rules which are sanctioned by the semantics.

	What is RDF? - A Word Definition From the Webopedia Computer Dictionary
		RDF is a general framework for describing a Web site's metadata, or the information about the information on the site.
		RDF details information such as a site's sitemap, the dates of when updates were made, keywords that search engines look for and the Web page's intellectual property rights.
		RDF relies on XML as an interchange syntax, creating an ontology system for the exchange of information on the Web.

	Resource Description Framework - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		The RDF metadata model is based upon the idea of making statements about resources in the form of subject-predicate-object expressions, called triples in RDF terminology.
		The subject denotes the resource, and the predicate denotes traits or aspects of the resource and expresses a relationship between the subject and the object.
		The purpose of RDF is to provide an encoding and interpretation mechanism so that resources can be described in a way that particular software can understand it; in other words, so that software can access and use data that it otherwise couldn't.

	Cover Pages: Resource Description Framework (RDF)
		RDF and XML are complementary: RDF is a model of metadata and only addresses by reference many of the encoding issues that transportation and file storage require (such as internationalization, character sets, etc.).
		RDF and XML are complementary: RDF is a model of metadata, and only superficially addresses many of the encoding issues that transportation and file storage require (such as internationalization, character sets, etc.).
		RDF is primarily for describing resources and their relations, while XLink is primarily for specifying and traversing hyperlinks.

		RDF with digital signatures will be key to building the "Web of Trust" for electronic commerce, collaboration, and other applications.

	RDF Primer
		RDF is intended for situations in which this information needs to be processed by applications, rather than being only displayed to people.
		The RDF Issue Tracking document [RDFISSUE] can be consulted for a list of issues raised concerning the previous RDF specifications, and their resolution in the current specifications.
		This is true not only for situations like this one, in which one organization is rating or commenting on a resource defined by another, but also for situations in which the original definer of a resource (or anyone else) wishes to amplify the description of that resource by providing additional information about it.

		RDF is a specification currently being developed to support the definition of metadata across the web.
		RDF is the Resource Description Framework proposed by Netscape as an open industry standard for describing how metadata for content is defined in web documents.

	XML.com: What Is RDF
		Resource Description Framework (RDF) is the W3C standard for encoding knowledge.
		These are the requirements that RDF provides a standard for, as we'll see in the next section.
		RDF was originally created in 1999 as a standard on top of XML for encoding metadata--literally, data about data.

		The RDF home page is the best place to track the latest developments and get involved with discussions about future RDF and 'semantic web' standards.
		As background on RDF Query this you might also look at some proposals for RDF Query that were made at the Query Languages for the Web workshop.

	Resource Description Framework \| EDUCAUSE CONNECT
		I've been working with FOAF recently, which is an RDF schema (format) for representing personal information and connections between people and appear to have found a wrinkle in the standard.
		Examples of RDF walled gardens include the FOAF generated by such systems as tribe.net and livejournal.
		The most popular namespace to forget appears to be that for the "rdf" prefix, presumably because some tools have a sensible default for this and somehow this default doesn't make it into the final file.

	XML.org
		RDF--the Resource Description Framework--is a framework for metadata; it provides interoperability between applications that exchange machine-understandable information on the Web.
		In general, RDF provides the basis for generic tools for authoring, manipulating, and searching machine understandable data on the Web thereby promoting the transformation of the Web into a machine-processable repository of information.
		One popular RDF application, RDF Site Summary (RSS), is a lightweight multipurpose extensible metadata description and syndication format conforming to the W3C's RDF Specification.
