RDFa: History, Standards & Products

RDFa or Resource Description Framework in Attributes is a W3C Recommendation that adds a set of attribute-level extensions to HTML, XHTML and various XML-based document types for embedding rich metadata within web documents. The Resource Description Framework (RDF) data-model mapping enables the use of RDFs for embedding RDF subject-predicate-object…

Source & methodology

TTTA analyzes the structure around RDFa to surface related topics, entities, relationships, concept neighborhoods and bridge connections. Use the map to explore areas such as History, Standards & Products, including less central topics that may reveal useful research gaps. Automatically extracted connections are research leads rather than rewritten encyclopedia content.
