'''Resource Description Framework (RDF)''' is a language built on [[XML]] that enables the expression of statements using properties and attributes. These properties and attributes are defined in RDF Schema. For example, to say "<tt>http://ci-team.cs.drexel.edu/semantic/</tt> is in a <tt>language</tt> that is <tt>English</tt>", I would need the property "language" defined by some RDF Schema. The [http://dublincore.org/ Dublin Core Metadata Initiative (DCMI)] provides us with this definition [http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/language here]. Furthermore, this statement would look like the following bit of RDF code:

<code><rdf:Description rdf:about="http://ci-team.cs.drexel.edu/semantic/">
<dc:language>en</dc:language>
</rdf:Description></code>

RDF and [[Resource Description Framework Schema|RDF-S]] became W3C recommendations in February and March, 1999. Since then, RDF has undergone renovation (most notably the updated 2004 recommendation) and is still actively developed and widely used today. [http://web.resource.org/rss/1.0/spec RSS] and [http://www.adobe.com/products/xmp/ Adobe's XMP Metadata] are two popular, commercialized uses of RDF, not to mention several semantic web products from [http://simile.mit.edu/ MIT's Simile project].
