  CMDI-Interoperability / CMD2RDF
************************************

CMD2RDF provides transformation of whole of the CMD data domain (metamodel, profiles and instances) 
into RDF representation. [1]

[1] https://trac.clarin.eu/wiki/CMD2RDF

Overview
--------

The transformation is accomplished by XSL-stylesheets 
[xsl/*.xsl]

[CMDRecord2RDF.xsl] obviously converts a CMDI record into RDF.

During the transformation the corresponding CMD-profile is fetched from Component Registry.
As this is quite inefficient, there is also a variant with simple caching mechanism:
[CMDRecord2RDFcache.xsl]
which however relies on the SMC [2] library

Build 
-----

The accompanying ant-build script defines a target cmd2rdf that uses the cache-enabled version of the scripts
The cache needs to be prefilled in a separate step.

It also provides two util targets for RDF manipulation:

*rdf2rdf*
  general.ttl -> general.rdf
  
*rdf2graph*
  general.rdf -> general.dot -> general.png, general_LR.png
  
*download-aux-jars*
  fetches the jars required for the first two tasks into subdirectory [lib/]
