Hello all!

Here is something that may complement some other interesting services (like Redland):

RDF Schema Explorer at http://wonkituck.wi-inf.uni-essen.de/rdfs.html

What can be done with it?

(1) You can feed some RDF stuff into the Explorer (text entry/file upload). This will be parsed with Jan Wielemaker's SWI-Prolog parser and the resulting triples will be asserted to the fact base.

(2) You can CHECK/VALIDATE your model against the rule set provided in version 1.2 of the paper "A logical interpretation of RDF" (see [1] below).

(3) You can QUERY the model repeatedly by using the provided rule/fact set and by providing your OWN additional RULES/QUERIES.

(4) You can DEFINE/EXTEND THE SEMANTICS for your own predicates directly from within your RDF document.

Please, give it a try. Some more explanations are given on the Web site.

Thank you!

Best regards, Wolfram + Reinhold rdf@nestroy.wi-inf.uni-essen.de
