Re: Modeling the author's position from research papers into RDF graph

Hi

have you tried using sequences?
http://patterns.dataincubator.org/book/ordered-list.html
or even:
http://infolab.stanford.edu/~stefan/daml/order.html

personally i would also add some kind of property which describes the
semantics for the attribution order, so it's possible to have in the same
dataset also papers with alphabetical order
