What exactly don't you understand ? ;) If you look back at the pointers
I provided in http://lists.debian.org/debian-qa/2009/10/msg00050.html
you'll find an example of using the PRISM and CONNOTEA ontologies for
links with DOI and PUBMED IDs (more details in
http://www.prismstandard.org/resources/mod_prism.html maybe).

I suppose that searching for perl+rdf on your preferred search engine
will retrieve useful code ;)

I'm not a perl hacker myself, but as RDF is a standard of the W3C, there
are probably plenty of perl code to produce RDF.

http://search.cpan.org/~mthurn/RDF-Simple-0.415/lib/RDF/Simple/Serialiser.pm seems to be a valid candidate for first experiments.

Hope this helps.
