XML Standardization and Reuse of Sub-Schemas in the Danish Government Digital Services Project

Abstract

The Danish Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation has on behalf of the Danish XML Committee contracted a toolkit to support the development of standardizing XML Schemas by user communities. The infostructurbase has four elements:

  1. A website (in English) providing information about the standardized XML Schemas available and the interfaces for the public and private sector.

  2. Tools to support standardization work groups (calendar, discussion groups, file share, etc.)

  3. A repository of XML Schema fragments, interfaces and process descriptions.

  4. A UDDI repository

The purpose of the InfoStructurBase is to provide a free tool, which facilitates the development and standardization of XML based services. The underlying XML Schema data model is exceptional in its extreme enforcement of reuse.
