Associative memory (find all like this uri) instead of
addressing memory
(find at this uri). You  could knock out a very cool
implementation of Linda
tuple spaces using rdf.

Distributed/event based rules processing. Facts, rules,
actions and
assertions are all tuple patterns and live in the service
space (or a
network of services). You could knock a very cool
implementation of such a
rules base using Linda tuple spaces using rdf.

Check out IBM's TSpaces; not that it's RDF, but I could see
Topic Maps or RDF being used instead of Java objects.  It's
a sort of super-Linda.
