An XML-based realty company
Data interchange is one of XML's strengths. The ability to move structured data from one system to another, without losing anything in translation, makes a whole new class of applications possible. We'll demonstrate this through a sample application built for a fictional realty company and one of its branch offices. We'll discuss the XML technologies we used to build the application, and demonstrate how they tie various data stores and devices together.
XML at ibm.com
IBM's home page (http://www.ibm.com) is our front door to the Internet world. As part of our continuous effort to maintain a state-of-the-art Web site, we have begun using XML in a production environment, incorporating a variety of XML-related technologies such as XSL, XML Fragments, XLinks, and XPointers. This article discusses the prototypes we built, the lessons we've learned, and our wish list for the future.
Bean Markup Language from IBM alphaWorks: Enabling active content
In this article we will explore IBM's alphaWorks, one of IBM's major channels for XML technology. We will focus on one of the upcoming trends in the use of XML that transcends its simple use as data -- that of XML as active content. Bean Markup Language, available on alphaWorks, provides an XML mechanism for implementing active content.
