Ontology Views for Ontology Change Management
Is a language for representing information about resources in the World Wide Web. It is particularly intended for representing metadata about Web resources, such as the title, author, and modification date of a Web page, copyright and licensing information about a Web document, or the availability schedule for some shared resource. SPARQL.

Integrating Heterogeneous Enterprise Data Using Ontology in Supply Chain Management
The RDF is a standard for representing knowledge on the web. It is primarily designed for building the semantic web and has been widely adopted in database and datamining communities. RDF models a fact as a triple which consists of a subject (s), a predicate (p), and an object (o).

Executing, Comparing, and Reusing Linked-Data-Based Recommendation Algorithms With the Allied Framework
This framework is a recommendation of the W3C that provides a generic graph-based data model for describing resources, including their relationships with other resources. The graph data model of the RDF framework is composed of triples or statements. Each triple contains a subject, a predicate, and an object.

E-Commerce and the Web of Data
RDF is a framework that includes a data model and a general-purpose language to describe metadata. This data model is based on a conceptual idea made of triples, each consisting of a subject, a predicate and an object.

RDF and OWL for Knowledge Management
An example of ‘metadata’ language (metadata = data about data) used to describe generic ‘things’ (‘resources’, according to the RDF jargon) on the Web. An RDF document is a list of statements under the form of triples having the classical format: <object, property, value>, where the elements of the triples can be URIs (Universal Resource Identifiers), literals (mainly, free text) and variables. RDF statements are normally written into XML format (the so-called ‘RDF/XML syntax’).

A Fuzzy RDF Graph-Matching Method Based on Neighborhood Similarity
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 notations and data serialization formats.

Teaching and Learning with Mobile Technologies
RDF provides a means for adding semantics to a document. It is an infrastructure that enables encoding, exchange, and reuse of information structured metadata. RDF allows multiple metadata schemas to be read by humans as well as machines providing interoperability between applications that exchange machine-understandable information on the Web.

Really Simple Syndication (RSS)
RDF integrates a variety of applications from library catalogs and worldwide directories to syndication and aggregation of news, software, and content to personal collections of music, photos, and events using XML as an interchange syntax.

NoSQL Databases
RDF is a general method of decomposing any type of data into small pieces, with some rules about the semantics of those pieces. NoSQL systems are increasingly used to manage. RDF data, it is still difficult to grasp their key advantages and drawbacksin this context. The point is to have a method so simple that it can express any fact, and yet structured enough that computer applications can do useful things with it. NoSQL data management systems have emerged as a commonly used infras-tructure for handling big data outside the RDF space.
