XML Tech

Extensible Markup Language (XML) is a simple, very flexible text format derived from SGML (ISO 8879). Originally designed to meet the challenges of large-scale electronic publishing, XML is also playing an increasingly important role in the exchange of a wide variety of data on the Web and elsewhere.

  • Sun’s XML Site: Java technology and XML are a natural match for the creation of applications that exploit the web of information where different classes of clients consume and generate information that is exchanged between different servers that run on varied system platforms. The portability and extensibility of both XML and Java technology make them the ideal choice for the flexibility and wide availability requirements of this new web.This site provides all that you'll need to build Java-based XML technology.
  • http://www.xml.org/ - Applying XML and Web services standards in industry.
  • http://www.w3.org/XML/ - The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) develops interoperable technologies (specifications, guidelines, software, and tools) to lead the Web to its full potential. W3C is a forum for information, commerce, communication, and collective understanding. You'll find W3C news, links to W3C technologies and ways to get involved.
  • XML.com - XML from the inside out.
  • http://www.mobilein.com/xml.htm - Extensible Markup Language from Mobile in a Minute™.
  • kXML project provides an XML pull parser and writer suitable for all Java platforms including the Java 2 Micro Edition (CLDC/MIDP/CDC). Because of its small footprint, it is especially suited for Applets or Java appications running on mobile devices like Palm Pilots or MIDP enabled cell phones.
  • kSOAP is a SOAP API suitable for the Java 2 Micro Edition that is based on kXML. Because of its small footprint, it is suitable for building SOAP-enabled Java Applets as well.
  • Wingfoot SOAP 1.0: Wingfoot SOAP is a lightweight implementation of SOAP 1.1 for J2ME (CLDC and CDC).
  • kUDDI complements kSOAP and aims to provide a UDDI client service to allow appliation developers to create software that discovers Web services.
  • kSync is a software library that implements SyncML data synchronization protocol. It has a client-side version written for J2ME/MIDP profile, allowing it to be used on Java-powered cellphones and PDAs.
  • kXML-RPC is a J2ME implementation of the XML-RPC protocol built upon the kXML parser. kXML-RPC empowers J2ME devices with an extremely lightweight mechanism for exchanging data and invoking Web services in a neutral, standardized XML format.
  • Location Finder (Mobile Commerce)

    Mobile Commerce has developed Location Finder, proprietary technology that is able to pinpoint products and services, relate them to the caller's actual or desired location and sort them according to preference. The result of the enquiry is packaged into an SMS message and returned to the caller's handset. The Location Finder is an application-programming interface (API) using XML standards to enable dynamic access to operator's handset location feed and Mobile Commerce's extensive mobile-centric content. The Location Finder API provides a session-less "single-shot" method of requesting a list of merchants/services ordered by proximity to a defined origin point or location of a mobile handset - using its location interfaces to the Network operators Location Finder can return the required content based on this location.
