Discovering and Using Functions via Content Negotiation

Ben De Meester, Anastasia Dimou, Ruben Verborgh, and Erik Mannens

Data has been made reusable and machine-interpretable by publishing it as Linked Data. However, Linked Data automatic processing is not fully achieved yet, as manual effort is still needed to integrate existing tools and libraries within a certain technology stack. To enable automatic processing, we propose exposing functions and methods as Linked Data, publishing it in different programming languages, using content negotiation to cater to different technology stacks, and making use of common, technology-independent identifiers to make them discoverable. As such, we can enable automatic processing of Linked Data across formats and technology stacks. By using discovery endpoints, similar to those used to discover vocabularies and ontologies, the publication of these functions can remain decentralized.
