The Role of Document Type Definitions in Electronic Data



Link to this resource

This paper looks at the role document type definitions (DTDs) will play in the management of XML-based business-to-business electronic data interchange. It is designed to clarify a number of issues that seem to be causing concern at the beginning of 1999 during discussions relating to the best way to set up and manage shareable repositories of business message types. In particular it looks at: the XML Process Model, the role of XML namespaces, the role of repositories in the process of creating DTDs, the role of repositories in the creation of applications and the role of repositories in the management of DTDs.
