[A24] - Introduction to XML
David Durand, Ingenta, USA

Workshop: [A24] - Introduction to XML

XML is a core document technology, that is starting to revolutionize the way data and documents are managed and produced on the web and elsewhere, by bringing years of text-encoding experience to bear on document representation and management. This course provides an introduction to the philosophy and technical details of XML. This course will comprise a technical overview of the language itself, as well as information about its applications (especially as they relate to document management and hypertext). We will discuss document analysis, and the place of XML in the larger group of related standards efforts, such as Xlink, RDF, XSL, and DOM.

The course is targeted at anyone who thinks they need a technical and strategic overview of XML.

This conference is one of the International Cultural Heritage Informatics Meetings (ICHIMs) held every two years since 1991. See http://www.archimuse.com/conferences/ichim.html for further details, and past Proceedings.
