Linked Data Templates: Ontology-driven approach to read-write Linked Data

In this paper we summarize the architecture of Linked Data Templates, a uniform protocol for read-write Linked Data.

We start by overviewing existing approaches as well as protocol constraints, and propose a declarative approach based on URI-representation mapping, defined as templates. We then introduce an abstract model for RDF CRUD interactions based on template matching, outline the processing model, and provide an example.

We conclude that LDT provides a new way to build applications and can be used to implement the ontology-driven Semantic Web vision.
