eXtensible Markup Language: A Tutorial

SGML (Standard Generalized Markup Language) is mother of all the markup languages. eXtensible Markup Language (XML) is a derivative of SGML. In the Internet arena Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) is found to be unsuitable particularly when it comes to attach semantics to the data. That is why XML was developed. XML is still not a completely matured technology and more and more specifications are coming up. Currently XML version 1.0 is released by W3C. This paper is written to give an overview about the designing of a XML based solution for library science professionals

Extensible Markup Language (XML) 1.1

El lenguaje extensible de marcas (XML) es un subconjunto de SGML, y aparece completamente definido en este documento. Su objetivo es permitir que SGML genérico pueda ser servido, recibido y procesado en la Web en la misma manera que hoy es posible con HTML. XML ha sido diseñado de tal manera que sea fácil de implementar y buscando interoperabilidad tanto con SGML como con HTML.Second editio

Description of the LTG system used for MUC-7

The basic building blocks in our muc system are reusable text handling tools which wehave been developing and using for a number of years at the Language Technology Group. They are modular tools with stream input/output; each tooldoesavery speci c job, but can be combined with other tools in a unix pipeline. Di erent combinations of the same tools can thus be used in a pipeline for completing di erent tasks. Our architecture imposes an additional constraint on the input/output streams: they should have a common syntactic format. For this common format we chose eXtensible Markup Language (xml). xml is an o cial, simpli ed version of Standard Generalised Markup Language (sgml), simpli ed to make processing easier [3]. Wewere involved in the developmentofthexml standard, building on our expertise in the design of our own Normalised sgml (nsl) and nsl tool lt nsl [10], and our xml tool lt xml [11]. A detailed comparison of this sgml-oriented architecture with more traditional data-base oriented architectures can be found in [9]. A tool in our architecture is thus a piece of software which uses an api for all its access to xml and sgml data and performs a particular task: exploiting markup which has previously been added by other tools, removing markup, or adding new markup to the stream(s) without destroying the previously adde

Algorithms and implementation of functional dependency discovery in XML : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Information Sciences in Information Systems at Massey University

1.1 Background Following the advent of the web, there has been a great demand for data interchange between applications using internet infrastructure. XML (extensible Markup Language) provides a structured representation of data empowered by broad adoption and easy deployment. As a subset of SGML (Standard Generalized Markup Language), XML has been standardized by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) [Bray et al., 2004], XML is becoming the prevalent data exchange format on the World Wide Web and increasingly significant in storing semi-structured data. After its initial release in 1996, it has evolved and been applied extensively in all fields where the exchange of structured documents in electronic form is required. As with the growing popularity of XML, the issue of functional dependency in XML has recently received well deserved attention. The driving force for the study of dependencies in XML is it is as crucial to XML schema design, as to relational database(RDB) design [Abiteboul et al., 1995]

XML for Text Markup: An Introduction to XML Markup

This presentation introduces the extensible markup language (XML) for text markup. It explains where XML came from, the advantages, gives a comparison of XML to HTML, and discusses how XML works and can be used

The Evolution, current status, and future direction of XML

The Extensible Markup Language (XML) is now established as a multifaceted open-ended markup language and continues to increase in popularity. The major players that have shaped its development include the United States government, several key corporate entities, and the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). This paper will examine these influences on XML and will address the emergence, the current status, and the future direction of this language. In addition, it will review best practices and research that have contributed to the continued development and advancement of XML
