RDF Data Access Use Cases and Requirements W3C Working Draft 25 March 2005 This Version: http://www.w3.org/TR/2005/WD-rdf-dawg-uc-20050325/ Previous Version: http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/WD-rdf-dawg-uc-20041012/ Latest Version: http://www.w3.org/TR/rdf-dawg-uc/ Editor: Kendall Grant Clark, University of Maryland Information and Network Dynamics Laboratory Copyright © 2004, 2005 W3C® ( MIT, ERCIM, Keio), All Rights Reserved. W3C liability, trademark, and document use rules apply. ________________________________________________________________________ Abstract This document specifies use cases, requirements, and objectives for an RDF query language and data access protocol. It suggests how an RDF query language and data access protocol could be used in the construction of novel, useful Semantic Web applications in areas like web publishing, personal information management, transportation, and tourism. Status of This Document Since the October 2004 draft of this document, the RDF Data Access Working Group has * adopted a WSDL requirement and a sorting objective (see change log for details) * postponed some design issues to a future version due to lack of implementation and design experience (cascadedQueries, accessingCollections) * changed our approach to the Human-friendly Syntax objective (see issue punctuationSyntax and upcoming design document revisions) We invite feedback on which features are required for a first version of SPARQL and which should be postponed in order to expedite deployment of others. Please send comments to public-rdf-dawg-comments@w3.org, a mailing list with a public archive. This document has been produced by the RDF Data Access Working Group, along with three design documents: SPARQL Query Language for RDF, SPARQL Protocol for RDF, and SPARQL Variable Binding Results XML Format. This work is part of the Semantic Web Activity in the W3C Technology & Society Domain. -- Dan Connolly, W3C http://www.w3.org/People/Connolly/ D3C2 887B 0F92 6005 C541 0875 0F91 96DE 6E52 C29E
