I thought it might be helpful to clairfy the common areas in the two model theories for TDL and S. (And hence to clarify what the dispute is about). Given a string and a datatype (e.g. "0" and xsd:integer) both TDL and S have representations in the model of: - the string itself + in TDL the first component of the interpretation of the string + in S the interpretation of the string (which I think is XL(s)) - the mapped value + in TDL the second component + in S-A the interpretation of the b-node + in S-P the first component of the interpretation of the b-node A difference is that S requires these two distinct enitities in the universe of discourse to be mapped from two distinct entities in the graph; whereas TDL likes idiom S-B and manages to map that single node into both the string itself and the mapped value. Both S and TDL also have a representation in the model theory of the datatype, although for TDL this representation is limited to the uri & mapping only, (from which the other properties can be deduced). Obviously both model theories have the non-datatype machinery in common. JeremyReceived on Monday, 28 January 2002 11:46:56 EST
