XLINK was one of the founding members of RIPE and of DENIC its autonomous system number autnum was AS517.

In computer science , particularly in human computer interaction , presentation semantics specify how a particular piece of a formal language is represented in a distinguished manner accessible to human senses , usually human vision. For example, saying that code nowiki bold ... bold nowiki code must render the text between these constructs using some bold typeface is a specification of presentation semantics for that syntax . An example of interactive presentation semantics is defining the expect behavior of a Hyperlink hypertext link on a suitable syntax. Many markup languages like HTML , CSS , DSSSL , XSL FO or troff have presentation semantics, but others like XML , XLink and XPath do not. ref H. P.

It gives an important set of tools for the users to create their own Description Scheme s DSs and Descriptors Ds . DDL defines the syntax rules to define, combine, extend and modify Description Schemes and Descriptors. Introduction DDL is not a modeling language, such as the Unified Modeling Language Unified Modeling Language UML , but a schematic language to represent the audiovisual data results, which must conform to the descriptors, the description schemes and the MPEG 7 descriptions. MPEG 7 DDL Must Be able to express relationships of elements within a DS or between two DS, whether they are structural, spatial, temporal, conceptual or hierarchical. Give a rich set of unions and references between one or more descriptions and the data they describe. Be application and platform independent. Be able to specify the descriptors data type, whether they are primary integers, text, time, ... or derived enumerated, ... History In 1999, the team in charge of MPEG 7 DDL was comparing and evaluating proposals in the MPEG 7 AHG Test And Evaluation Meeting held in Lancaster. The main agreement was that DDL had to use the XML syntax, support object oriented semantics, as well as being able to validate structural, relational and data typing constraints. Although no proposal satisfied the requirements the Distributed Systems Technology Centre DSTC proposal was used as a starting point, extending it with the additions of ideas and components from other proposals and contributors. Moreover, the strategy was to keep tracking and influencing the W3C community, specially the XML Schema W3C XML Schema , XLink , XPath and XPointer working groups. At the 51st MPEG meeting, the adoption of the XML Schema syntax with specific MPEG 7 extensions was decided.

In computing , Resource Directory Description Language RDDL is an extension of XHTML Basic 1.0. An RDDL document, called a Resource Directory, provides a package of information about some target. The targets which RDDL was designed to describe are XML namespace s. The specification for RDDL has no official standing and has not been considered nor approved by any organization e.g., W3C . RDDL is designed to allow both human readers and software robots to find any sort of resource associated with a particular namespace. Instead of putting one thing at the end of a namespace Uniform Resource Identifier URI , RDDL puts a document there that lists all the machine processable documents that might be available, including, but not limited to Document Type Definition s DTD XML schema s in a variety of languages including RELAX , Schematron , W3C XML Schema , TREX , and others Cascading Style Sheets , XSLT , and other style sheet specifications Specification documents rddl resource An RDDL document identifies each related resource by a resource element in the http www.rddl.org namespace, which is customarily mapped to the rddl prefix. This element is a simple XLink that is, it has an code xlink type code attribute with the value simple and its code xlink href code attribute points to the related resource. Furthermore, the code xlink role code attribute identifies the nature of the related resource and the optional code xlink arcrole code attribute identifies the purpose of the related resource. An optional code xlink title code attribute can provide a brief description of the purpose of the link.

The stairs were blocked off in 1981, having been worn down for almost 80 years, and were then repaired between 1982 and 1984, in the process of which a caf and art gallery were added in a previously unused inner room behind the stairs, both of which opened on the 1 August 1985.

refimprove date April 2010 In metadata , Annotea is an Resource Description Framework RDF standard sponsored by the W3C to enhance document based collaboration via shared document metadata based on tags, Internet bookmark bookmarks , and other annotation s. In this case document metadata includes Keywords Comments Notes Explanations Errors Corrections In general, Annotea associates text strings to a web document or selected parts of a web document without actually needing to modify the original document. Users that access any web documents can also load the metadata associated with it from a selected annotation server or groups of servers and see a peer group s comments on the document. Similarly shared metadata tags can be attached to web documents to help in future retrieval. Annotea is an extensible standard and is designed to work with other W3C standards when possible. For instance, Annotea uses an RDF schema for describing annotations as metadata and XPointer for locating the annotations in the annotated document. Similarly a bookmark schema describes the bookmark and topic metadata. Annotea is part of the W3C Semantic Web efforts. An example implementation of Annotea is W3C s Amaya web browser Amaya editor browser. The current Amaya user interface for annotations is presented in the Amaya documentation. Other projects consists of Plugins for Firefox Mozilla or Annotatio Client which interacts with most browsers per JavaScript.

Plain Old XML POX is a term used to describe basic XML , sometimes mixed in with other, blendable specifications like XML namespace XML Namespaces , Dublin Core , XInclude and XLink . People typically use the term as a contrast with complicated, multilayered XML specifications like those for web service s or Resource Description Framework RDF . The term may have been derived from or inspired by the expression plain old telephone service a.k.a. POTS and, similarly Plain Old Java Object . An interesting question is how POX relates to XML Schema W3C XML Schema . On the one hand, POX is completely compatible with XML Schema. However, many POX users eschew XML Schema to avoid the poor or inconsistent quality of XML Schema to Java tools. Fact date January 2009 POX is complementary to Representational State Transfer REST REST refers to a communication pattern, while POX refers to an information format style.
