In this scenario the client wants to find all the AM resources that have a certain values for specific properties. This scenario requires that the client has already discovered the Simple Query URI via the service catalog
Example 1. Returning all required properties
Starting with Simple Query URI the client constructs a simple query and GET the resulting ATOM collection. In this examples the service provider is includes only the minimal information in each entry. It does not specify the creator/contributor nor timestamps. The query before encoding is
…/query=http://purl.org/dc/terms/type=UMLInterface and http://purl.org/dc/terms/description=Customer
A URL encoding it becomes
…%2Fquery%3Dhttp%3A%2F%2Fpurl.org%2Fdc%2Fterms%2Ftype%3DUMLInterface%2B
and%2Bhttp%3A%2F%2Fpurl.org%2Fdc%2Fterms%2Fdescription%3D*Customer*
Request (request URI line wraps to make more readable)

Example 2. Returning specified properties
In this example the client wants all resources that begin with the title “Web”. The properties being returned include only the title and type values.
