Towards Green Linked Data

We here present a vision of what needs to be addressed when designing and publishing linked data on the Web. Our approach aims at reducing the amount of incorrect, irrelevant, or redundant content - which can also be seen as pollution in the Web of Data - when publishing linked data. At the foundation lie the design principles adapted from green engineering.We envision a holistic framework that evaluates, along these principles and their respective assessment metrics, datasets from publishers and allows configuration of new validation tools.
