Collection in RDF
| Previous | Home | Next |
A collection is a finite group of items that contain specific member(i.e, the resources). Actually "list of values" are called members. Within RDF/XML, a collection is defined through the use of rdf:parseType="Collection" and also listing the collected resources within the other collection block. The use of Collection within RDF/XML is fairly straightforward and uncomplicated. In a Collection you first have to remove a statement before adding new items.
