Abstract
Linked Data principles supported especially by RDF triples appeared recently to enrich the Web of Documents by the Web of Data. However, each application that wants to process RDF triples has to deal with their distribution, dynamics and scaling.
Thus, having understood structural and other features of such data, we may have better chances to propose these applications more efficiently. Especially when we consider issues of data storing, indexing and querying.
The aim of this paper is to propose characteristics that appropriately capture and describe such features of RDF triples, and to provide experimental results over a few selected real-world RDF datasets.
