Interface QualifiedName

public interface QualifiedName

Interface for PROV Qualified Name.

PROV-DM Definition for Qualified Name: A qualified name is a name subject to namespace interpretation. It consists of a namespace, denoted by an optional prefix, and a local name.

PROV-DM stipulates that a qualified name can be mapped into an IRI by concatenating the IRI associated with the prefix and the local part.

A qualified name's prefix is optional. If a prefix occurs in a qualified name, it refers to a namespace declared in a namespace declaration. In the absence of prefix, the qualified name refers to the default namespace.

This interface specification is derived from QName without the implied syntactic restrictions of xsd:QName.
