Is there a way to specify a (sematic) document version with dublin core or the like?

I would like to add a semantic version to a document, which is an interface specification, using meta-data.

My preference would be to not have something proprietary, but standards based, e.g. using Dublin Core.

I already used the text search to find something in the vocabularies defined there and found two things:

However, both are meant to be used for "non-literal" values and reference another resource.

Frankly I did not fully understand in which way they shall be used.

Is there anything available for my use-case?

The Dublin Core terms dcterms:hasVersion/dcterms:isVersionOf are meant to link the versioned documents to each other, e.g.:

</documentation/v2/install> dcterms:isVersionOf </documentation/v1/install> .

To provide the version literal of a document, you could use the Schema.org property schema:version:

</documentation/v2/install> schema:version "2" .

If the document is an ontology: owl:versionInfo
