Typed Nodes (cont)
A resource may belong to several classes
(
rdf:type
is just a property…)
The type information may be very important for applications
e.g., it may be used for a categorization of possible nodes
The W3C documents include some predefined types:
e.g., sequences, lists, bags: possible collection of individuals, but with an attached semantics
e.g., unicity for sequences
