1.22 Software Naming Changes Since Release 11.1
Because the support for RDF data has been expanded beyond the original focus on RDF, the names of many software objects (PL/SQL packages, functions and procedures, system tables and views, and so on) have been changed as of Oracle Database Release 11.1.
In most cases, the change is to replace the string RDF with SEM. although in some cases it may be to replace SDO_RDF with SEM.
All valid code that used the pre-Release 11.1 names will continue to work; your existing applications will not be broken. However, it is suggested that you change old applications to use new object names, and you should use the new names for any new applications. This manual will document only the new names.
Table 1-32 lists the old and new names for some objects related to support for semantic technologies, in alphabetical order by old name.
