Understanding The Language Of Digital Humanities: Linked Data, Jeremy Myntti

Faculty Publications

Tim Berners-Lee's four principles of Linked Data

1. Use URIs as names for things.
2. Use HTTP URIs so that people can look up those names.
3. When someone looks up a URI, provide useful information, using the standards (RDF*, SPARQL).
4. Include links to other URIs so that they can discover more things.
