Ruben Verborgh’s data

Matches in Ruben’s data for { ?s ?p "How can we ever talk about intelligent clients if we don’t provide them with opportunities to be intelligent? The current generation of RDF APIs is patronizing its clients by only describing its data in RDF. This contrasts to websites for humans, where data would be quite useless if it were not accompanied by context and controls. By omitting these, we withhold basic information from clients, like “what’s in this response?” and “where can I go next?”. This post proposes to extend the power of self-descriptiveness from data to API responses as a whole. Using RDF graphs, we can combine data, context, and controls in one response. RDF APIs need to become like websites, explaining clients where they are and what they can do."@en }
