Abstract for “ Memory management in streaming: buffering,…”:
Although the ideal approach to streaming is to process markup events as soon as they are encountered, with no memory needing to be used for storing parts of the input document, this is not always feasible, and in practice it is useful to consider "near-streaming" approaches that involve a limited amount of buffering or lookahead. In the extreme, however, such approaches degenerate until they are indistinguishable from non-streaming processes. This paper attempts a classification of streaming and near-streaming processing methods using different approaches to memory management, and discusses the advantages and disadvantages of each.
Abstract for “ Visual Designers: Those XML tools with no…”:
Is the future of XML planned to be without XML? Visual tools are everywhere and XProc might be the first XML dialect to be immediately available with its visual editor. After erratic evolutions, visual tools have become more and more precise (even HTML+CSS tools are now very powerful), and are become more and more main stream. Could we imagine dealing with XML Schema without descent Visual Tools? We will show in this presentation an overview of where we do XML without seeing any angle bracket and the places where we expect to have some equivalent tools soon.
