Data: XML & XML Toolkit
- XML is a key technology to ensure interoperability
- But XML, by itself, is not really useful... we need to:
- have datatypes, validation (DTD-s, Schemas, ...)
- mix XML specifications/applications (Namespaces)
- use hyperlinks (XLink, XBase, ...)
- compose/decompose (XInclude, Fragments, ...)
- refer to XML data content (XPath, Query, ...)
- transform (XSLT)
- encrypt, decrypt, sign (Signature, Encryption, ...)
- interact, script (DOM, Events, ...)
- etc.
- W3C is active in all these areas
- See also Paul's presentation later today on XML Query
