XML technologies dissected
Erik Jan de Wilde · IEEE Internet Computing · 2003
The lack of well-defined information models in many XML technologies can generate compatibility problems and lower the odds of their long-term success. The author systematically examines the information and data models of several influential XML technologies. He defines information model and data model in keeping with the terms discussed in RFC 3444. The intention is that the clarification this RFC offers can both benefit XML technologies and help identify areas for future work.
