RDF Schemas
Properties (Predicates)


  • Property is a special class (rdf:Property)
    • i.e., properties are also resources
  • Properties are constrained by their range and domain
    • i.e., what individuals can be on the “left” or on the “right”
  • There is also a possibility for a “sub-property”
    • all resources bound by the “sub” are also bound by the other
