- XML Binary Characterization Working Group
This document describes the processes and results of the XML Binary Characterization Working Group in evaluating the need and feasibility of a "binary XML" recommendation. It includes an analysis of which properties such a format must possess. It recommends that the W3C produce a "binary XML" recommendation and enumerates the minimum requirements which this "binary XML" recommendation must meet.

This document is the result of a study to identify desirable properties in an XML format. An XML format is a format that is capable of representing the information in an XML document. The properties have been derived from requirements induced by use cases collected in the [XBC Use Cases] document. Properties are divided into two categories: algorithmic and format. Besides these two categories, Section 6 Additional Considerations lists additional considerations which, because of the difficulty to establish an accurate measurement, have not been listed as properties but are nonetheless relevant for an accurate comparison between different proposals.

This document describes use cases for evaluating the potential benefits of an efficient serialization format for XML. The use cases are documented here to understand the constraints involved in environments for which XML employment may be problematic because of one or more characteristics of XML. Desirable properties of XML and alternative formats to address the use cases are derived and discussed in a separate publication of the XML Binary Characterization Working Group (XBC WG) [XBC Properties].
