Content below has been taken from tef's work. ==specialized data stores Consider two specialized data stores: - "MediaWiki"[1] - contains articles, images, links, and wikilinks - every page has a unique title - "del.icio.us"[2] - links only - has tags [1]http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki [2]http://delicious.com/ ==storing atoms Let us define an _atom_ as the unit of data that is stored. In our specialized data stores, atoms were entire articles for MediaWiki and links for del.icio.us. What we really want is to store absolutely anything. We do not want to have to name things like with most wikis. We do not want to store only certain data types. Atoms by themselves are of limited use, especially when their number gets large. Therefore, we need _metadata_. There are several types: 1. intrinsic - dimensions of an image - length of text - domain of a URL 2. labels - titles - tags - notes 3. _smart_ labels - labels that depend on others (_calculated metadata_) - inferred from existing metadata instead of applied directly Note that metadata are usually associated with data; _width_ is a property of images that contains a single value. Documents have a _title_ with a string value. We need to define a query language upon these labels that can be used to define categories. Here are two examples of categories (intentionally in Prolog-ish syntax): - europe:- scotland - large:- width(X), height(Y), X > 1000, Y > 1000 How to handle embedded links?
