Tim Berners-Lee four principles of Linked Data in Design Issues: Linked Data (2006,2009):
• Use URIs to identify things.
• Use HTTP URIs so that these things can be referred to
and looked up ("de-referenced") by people and user agents.
• Provide useful information (i.e., a structured description — metadata) about
the thing when its URI is de-referenced, using standard formats such as RDF-XML.
• Include links to other, related URIs in the exposed data to improve discovery
of other related information on the Web.
