XForms ---W3C's next-generation XML-based web forms--- provides an XML platform for authoring and deploying semantically rich applications. XForms is characterized by its separation of the underlying data model of an application from the user interaction. XForms can be used with a wide variety of platforms including desktop computers, hand helds, information appliances, and even paper.
This Town Hall Meeting will include an introduction the XForms specification, a look at some open source and commercial tools that support the specification, and a question and answer period with a panel of XForms Working Group members and vendors implementing the specification.
The following presentations will be part of the Town Hall Meeting:
Xforms Architecture Overview – Micah Dubinko Micah will introduce XForms to the audience and provide and overview of the architecture and how one creates an Xform application.
XForms and XML Schema – David Cleary David will discuss how XForms leverages the XML Schema Recommendation in order to provide a rich library of datatypes for use in an XForms application and allow XForms data and structure to be validated against a schema.
XForms and Multimodal Applications – T. V. Raman Raman will discuss how the XForms separation of model from user interaction can be leveraged in authoring and deploying multimodal applications ---applications that support multiple modalities such as visual and spoken interaction.
XForms and Dynamic Data – John Boyer John will discuss XForms calculations and how data fields can be dynamically generated based on other XForms fields.
XForms Processing Model – Josef Dietl Josef will discuss how an XForm is processed from retrieving on the server, processing it on the client, and submitting the form data back to the server. He will also cover how XForms can support both legacy clients and servers.
