+such

+RDF
+differs
+from
+many
+such

+in
+that
+instead
+of
+defining
+a
+class
+in
+terms
+of
+the

+its

+the
+RDF
+vocabulary
+description
+language
+describes
+properties
+in
+terms
+of
+the
+classes
+of
+resource
+to
+which
+they
+apply.
+This
+is
+the
+role

+domain
+</a>
+and
+<a href="#ch_range">
+range
+</a>
+mechanisms
+described
+in
+this
+specification.
+For
+example,
+we
+could
+define
+the
+<code>
+eg:author
+</code>
+property
+to
+have
+a
+domain
+of
+<code>
+eg:Document
+</code>
+and
+a
+range
+of
+<code>
+eg:Person
+</code>,
+whereas
+a
+classical
+object
+oriented
+system
+might
+typically
+define
+a
+class
+<code>
+eg:Book
+</code>
+with
+an
+attribute
+called
+<code>
+eg:author
+</code>
+of
+type
+<code>
+eg:Person
+</code>.
+Using
+the
+RDF
+approach,
+it
+is
+easy
+for
+others
+to
+subsequently
+define
+additional
+properties
+with
+a
+domain
+of
+eg:
+<code>
+Document
+</code>
+or
+a
+range
+of
+<code>
+eg:Person
+</code>.
+This
+can
+be
+done
+without
+the
+need
+to
+re-define
+the
+original
+description
+of
+these
+classes.
+One
+benefit
+of
+the
+RDF
+property-centric
+approach
+is
+that
+it
+allows
+anyone
+to
+extend
+the

+of
