Figure 3From: SSWAP: A Simple Semantic Web Architecture and Protocol for semantic web servicesResource Description Graph (RDG). An example of how the semantic web service taxonomyLookupService describes itself using SSWAP classes and predicates. In this case, the resource maps any sswap:Subject with a ncbiTaxa:commonName to a sswap:Object of type ncbiTaxa:TaxonomyRecord. This is an example of using a database key (a string) to retrieve data. The full Resource Definition Graph (RDG) is at http://sswap.info/examples/resources/taxonomyLookupService/taxonomyLookupService and is available to anyone via a HTTP GET.Back to article page
