The following list of EcoDesignPrinciples was extracted mainly from two overview papers (Russo et al. 2017) and (Vezzoli, Mancini 2008).
This list serves only as proof of concept to demonstrate the potential of the RDF backed WUMM database. The links in the table point to a relevant part of the complete RDF information in the database.
