Protocol for the Syndication of Semantic Descriptions
Graham Moore, Marc Wilhelm Küster · 2008
Abstract. This document describes a protocol to be used for the exchange of semantic descriptions. The protocol defines how a web service can publish a series of web accessible feeds that describe snapshots and changes to a collection of semantic descriptions. This protocol also defines how a client should process the feeds provided by the service such that a local store is in sync. A client can synchronize with more than one server to act as an aggregator for semantic descriptions. Overview This document describes a protocol to be used for the exchange of semantic descriptions. The protocol defines how a web service can publish a series of web accessible feeds that describe snapshots and changes to a collection of semantic descriptions. This protocol also defines how a client should process the feeds provided by the service such that a local store is in sync. A client can synchronize with more than one server to act as an aggregator for semantic descriptions.
