This can be accomplished by including rdfs:isDefinedBy
(http://www.w3.org/TR/rdf-schema/#ch_isdefinedby) or other appropriate property
associations to the relevant elements. 

According to the spec: "rdfs:isDefinedBy [...] is used to indicate a resource
defining the subject resource. This property may be used to indicate an RDF
vocabulary in which a resource is described."

Referring to a vocabulary is at least good, but we would prefer to refer to the
particular term in the vocabulary that has the desired definition for the 
subject.
