Re: Dereferencing a URI vs querying a SPARQL endpoint

I think sitemap may already have what you want.
We use slicing="subject-object"
For our sets such as:
(See http://acm.rkbexplorer.com/sitemap.xml).

Says:

The <sc:linkedDataPrefix> and <sc:sparqlEndpointLocation> tags can have an optional slicing attribute that takes a value from the list of slicing methods below.

slicing="subject"
The description of a resource X includes the triples whose subject is X.

slicing="subject-object"
The description of a resource X includes the triples whose subject or object is X.

slicing="cbd"
The description of a resource X includes its Concise Bounded Description.

slicing="scbd"
The description of a resource X includes its Symmetric Concise Bounded Description.

slicing="msgs"
The description of a resource X includes all the Minimal Self-Contained Graphs involving X.

Dear all,

while designing Explorator [1], where one can explore one or more triple repositories that provide SPARQL enpoints (as well as direct URI dereferencing), I found the following question, to which I don't really know the answer...

For the sake of this discussion, I'm considering only such sites, i.e., those that provide SPRQL enpoints.
For a given URI r, is there any relation between the triples I get when I dereference it directly, as opposed to  querying the SPARQL enpoint for all triples <r, ?p, ?o> ?  Should there be (I could also get <?s, ?p, r>, for example) ?
For sites such as dbpedia I believe that I get the same set of triples. But I believe this is not a general behavior.
Should there be a good practice about this for LoD sites that provide SPARQL endpoints?
At the very least, perhaps this could also be described in the semantic sitemap.xml, no?

Cheers
