<p>An important aspect of publishing and sharing data on the Web

An important aspect of this is the identification principle that says that URIs
A relevant aspect of this is the identification principle that says that URIs
should be used to identify resources. In our context, a resource may be
a whole dataset or a specific item of given dataset. All resources
should be published with stable URIs, so that they can be referenced and
make links, via URIs, between two or more resources.</p>
<p>The following diagram illustrates the dataset composition (data values
and metadata) together with other components related to the dataset
publication and usage. Data values correspond to the data itself and may
be available in one or more distributions, which should be defined by
the publisher considering data consumer's expectations. The Metadata
component corresponds to the additional information that describes the
dataset and dataset distributions, helping the manipulation and the
reuse of the data. In order to allow easy access to the dataset and
its corresponding distributions, multiple dataset access mechanisms
can be available. Finally, to promote the interoperability among
datasets it is important to adopt vocabularies and standards. </p>
