I've begun a page relating to the DSP, with the idea that we could look
at whether the DSP helps us with RDF validation. [1]
I'm only beginning to understand the difficulties I have had with the
DCAM and DSP, but in part they relate to the fact that both the DCAM and
the DSP diagrams use a single type of diagram notation for what I see as
different types of things. Thus the diagrams do not differentiate
between structures (e.g. description set), property types (literal or
non-literal), and constraints. They also do not indicate where choices
are to be made (e.g. that a given property is of a single type).
I've redrawn the DSP to take these issues into account. I have also used
property type terminology from OWL rather than the DCAM terms, mainly
because the OWL types make more sense to me. You can see this on the page.
You can ALSO see that my design skills are limited. If anyone wishes to
provide a more readable version, or any alternate versions, we can put
them on the wiki.
