EXPRESS: EXPressing REstful Semantic Services

We introduce a new approach for RESTful Semantic Web Services called EXPRESS. It aims to exploit the similarities between REST and the Semantic Web, such as realization of resources, self describing representations, and uniform interfaces. EXPRESS is straightforward and systematic. It works by identifying resources in ontologies and provides them with a uniform interface. We also discuss other RESTful and non-RESTful approaches to Semantic Web Services and show how they relate.
