Extensible markup language XML

Extensible Markup Language (XML), in its various forms, is rapidly emerging as the dominant data format across all computer... 

The technological foundations of this vision currently consist of extensible Markup Language (XML) [76], XML Schema [77], the Resource Description Framework (RDF) [61], RDF Schema [62], and the Web Ontology Language [63]. These technologies are interdependent and can thus be arranged in the form of a semantic layer cake (Fig. 9). 

Before reaching the point of complete data integration as given above, there are intermediary levels of data integration that are beneficial to better analysis of data from process analyzers. The best case would be to have all the data in a human readable form that is independent of the application data format. Over the years several attempts have been made to have a universal format for spectroscopic data, including JCAMP-DX and extensible markup language (XML). Because many instrument vendors use proprietary databases, and there is not a universal standard, the problem of multiple data formats persists. This has led to an entire business of data integration by third parties who aid in the transfer of data from one source to another, such as between instruments and the plant s distributed control system (DCS). 

The syntactic rules are specified in the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) standard, Extensible Markup Language (XML). The first edition was issued in 1998 (Bray et al. 1998) the currently valid forth edition was published in 2006 (Bray et al. 2006b). If a document conforms to all rules given in this specification, it is said to be well formed. ...

As defined in Subsect. 2.1.2, a document is an aggregation of data and acts as a carrier of product data in a certain work context. One possibility to represent models of document contents is the use of the extensible Markup Language (XML) [1060] and its Document Type Definitions (DTDs), as suggested by Bayer and Marquardt [19]. Within a DTD, the structure of a specific document type can be described. Figure 2.9 shows the (incomplete) DTD of a specification sheet for vessels. Here, the different data items like temperature or construction material are indicated to specify the piece of equipment. However, the expressiveness of such document type definitions is rather restricted. A DTD specifies only the syntax of the document content but not its semantics. One possibility to enrich the DTD with meaning is to relate the single DTD elements to the classes and attributes of a product data model. This is exemplarily shown Fig. 2.9, where relations between some DTD elements and the corresponding classes of the product data model CLiP (cf. Subsect. 2.2.3) are indicated. 

The current project contains more than 20,000 terms for biological processes, cellular components, and molecular functions. The ontologies can be downloaded in different formats including extensible Markup Language (XML) and the open-source relational database scheme MySQL. 

Data can be transferred via data exchange technologies, such as extensible Markup Language (XML) and interface languages like Structured Query Language (SQL). 

The informatics process requires the integration and analysis of datasets in the public domain as well as from proprietary data sources that represent the intellectual property of the research organization. Public flat-file biology data are often curated and delivered from a number of public ftp sites. This information is released periodically, and any private storage of this information must be kept up to date with the public data as they are released. In addition, these data may be available in a variety of physical formats, such as flat file, Extensible Markup Language (XML), and relational. Software systems must support the ability to keep proprietary information physically separate to facilitate both the periodic update of public data and the integrity and security of private intellectual property.

The chemical markup language (CML) is based on the extensible markup language (XML) in order to code chemical structures [21-24], Besides chemical structures and reactions, CML is capable of drawing spectra, etc. 

Extensible Markup Language (XML) gains more andmore attention in recent years (BrayT. 2006). XML is a general-purpose specification for creating custom markup languages. It is classified as an extensible language, because it allows the user to define the mark-up elements.

CML is an Extensible Markup Language (XML) format for chemical information [58]. CML reads multiple information elements from the stmcture file molecule, atom, bond, name, formula, and the attribute hydrogenCount, formalCharge, isotope, isotopeNumber, spiuMultiplicity, radical (from Marvin), atomRefs4 (for at-omParity), atomID ( id), elementType, atomRefs, atomic bond (). The CML file ends with (Fig. 1.21).
