Field Detail

NIE_RESOURCE_PATH

public static final String NIE_RESOURCE_PATH
Path to the ontology resource

See Also:
Constant Field Values

NS_NIE

public static final URI NS_NIE
The namespace for NIE


InformationElement

public static final URI InformationElement
Type: Class
Label: InformationElement
Comment: A unit of content the user works with. This is a superclass for all interpretations of a DataObject.


DataSource

public static final URI DataSource
Type: Class
Label: DataSource
Comment: A superclass for all entities from which DataObjects can be extracted. Each entity represents a native application or some other system that manages information that may be of interest to the user of the Semantic Desktop. Subclasses may include FileSystems, Mailboxes, Calendars, websites etc. The exact choice of subclasses and their properties is considered application-specific. Each data extraction application is supposed to provide it's own DataSource ontology. Such an ontology should contain supported data source types coupled with properties necessary for the application to gain access to the data sources. (paths, urls, passwords etc...)


DataObject

public static final URI DataObject
Type: Class
Label: DataObject
Comment: A unit of data that is created, annotated and processed on the user desktop. It represents a native structure the user works with. The usage of the term 'native' is important. It means that a DataObject can be directly mapped to a data structure maintained by a native application. This may be a file, a set of files or a part of a file. The granularity depends on the user. This class is not intended to be instantiated by itself. Use more specific subclasses.


characterSet

Type: Property
Label: characterSet
Comment: Characterset in which the content of the InformationElement was created. Example: ISO-8859-1, UTF-8. One of the registered character sets at http://www.iana.org/assignments/character-sets. This characterSet is used to interpret any textual parts of the content. If more than one characterSet is used within one data object, use more specific properties.

isPartOf

public static final URI isPartOf
Type: Property
Label: isPartOf
Comment: Generic property used to express containment relationships between DataObjects. NIE extensions are encouraged to provide more specific subproperties of this one.

The isPartOf relation models physical containment, a nie:DataObject (e.g. an nfo:Attachment) is a 'physical' part of an nie:InformationElement (a nmo:Message). Also, please note the difference between physical containment (isPartOf) and logical containment (isLogicalPartOf) the former has more strict meaning. They may occur independently of each other.
