I would like to ask if there any constraints on the multiple occurence (cardinality) of rdf- and rdfs-defined properties about the same resource. For example, the following properties are by-now widely known to have multiple occurences: rdf:type (member of multiple class) rdfs:subClassOf (multiple inheritance - although I know that there is really nothing inherited!) rdfs:subPropertyOf (a kind of multiple inheritance for properties) rdfs:range, rdfs:domain (restrictions of properties to members of intersection of multiple classes) Now, the following rdf and rdfs properties have not been extensively discussed in the mailing lists and their cardinality is not discussed in the RDF docs: rdfs:label rdfs:comment rdfs:seeAlso (its intuitive meaning calls for multiple-occurence semantics) rdfs:isDefinedBy rdf:Value (should occur once, but I may be missing something) rdf:statement, rdf:predicate, rdf:object (should occur once, for each statement) -- ************************************************************** * Dr. Nick Bassiliades * * * * Programming Languages And Software Engineering (PLASE) Lab * * Logic Programming and Intelligent Systems (LPIS) Group * * * * Dept. of Informatics, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki * * 54006 Thessaloniki, Greece * * * * Tel: +30310998418 E-mail: nbassili@csd.auth.gr * * Fax: +30310998419 URL: http://www.csd.auth.gr/~nick * **************************************************************
