The Pronunciation Lexicon Specification PLS is a W3C Recommendation, which is designed to enable interoperable specification of pronunciation information for both speech recognition and speech synthesis engines within voice browsing applications. The language is intended to be easy to use by developers while supporting the accurate specification of pronunciation information for international use. The language allows one or more pronunciations for a word or phrase to be specified using a standard pronunciation alphabet or if necessary using vendor specific alphabets. Pronunciations are grouped together into a PLS document which may be referenced from other markup languages, such as the Speech Recognition Grammar Specification SRGS and the Speech Synthesis Markup Language Speech Synthesis Markup Language SSML . Usage Here is an example PLS document source lang xml ?xml version 1.0 encoding UTF 8 ? lexicon version 1.0 xmlns http www.w3.org 2005 01 pronunciation lexicon xmlns xsi http www.w3.org 2001 XMLSchema instance xsi schemaLocation http www.w3.org 2005 01 pronunciation lexicon http www.w3.org TR 2007 CR pronunciation lexicon 20071212 pls.xsd alphabet ipa xml lang en US lexeme grapheme judgment grapheme grapheme judgement grapheme phoneme d d .m nt phoneme IPA string is & x02C8 d& x0292 & x028C d& x0292 & x002E m& x0259 nt lexeme lexeme grapheme fianc grapheme grapheme fiance grapheme phoneme fi ns.e phoneme IPA string is fi& x02C8 & x0252 ns& x002E e& x026A phoneme fi . n se phoneme IPA string is & x02CC fi& x02D0 & x002E & x0251 & x02D0 n& x02C8 se& x026A lexeme lexicon source which could be used to improve speech synthesis TTS as shown in the following Speech Synthesis Markup Language SSML 1.0 document source lang xml ?xml version 1.0 encoding UTF 8 ? speak version 1.0 xmlns http www.w3.org 2001 10 synthesis xmlns xsi http www.w3.org 2001 XMLSchema instance xsi schemaLocation http www.w3.org 2001 10 synthesis http www.w3.org TR speech synthesis synthesis ... more details
PhyloXML is an XML language for the analysis, exchange, and storage of phylogenetic tree s or networks and associated data. ref cite journal last Han first Mira V. authorlink coauthors Zmasek, Christian M. title phyloXML XML for evolutionary biology and comparative genomics journal BMC Bioinformatics volume 10 publisher BioMed Central location United Kingdom date 2009 pmid 19860910 url http www.biomedcentral.com 1471 2105 10 356 pmc 2774328 doi 10.1186 1471 2105 10 356 accessdate pages 356 ref The structure of phyloXML is described by XML Schema Definition XSD language. A shortcoming of current formats for describing phylogenetic trees such as Nexus file Nexus and Newick format Newick New Hampshire is a lack of a standardized means to annotate tree nodes and branches with distinct data fields which in the case of a basic species tree might be species names, branch lengths, and possibly multiple support values . Data storage and exchange is even more cumbersome in studies in which trees are the result of a reconciliation of some kind gene function studies requires annotation of nodes with taxonomic information as well as gene names, and possibly gene duplication data evolution of host parasite interactions requires annotation of tree nodes with taxonomic information for both host and parasite phylogeographic studies requires annotation of tree nodes with taxonomic and geographic information To alleviate this, a variety of ad hoc, special purpose formats have come into use such as the NHX format , which focuses on the needs of gene function and phylogenomic studies . A well defined XML format addresses these problems in a general and extensible manner and allows for interoperability between specialized and general purpose software.

The PBCore metadata standard Public Broadcasting Metadata Dictionary was created by the public broadcasting community in the United States of America for use by public broadcasters and related communities. Initial development funding for PBCore was provided by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. The PBCore standard is built on the foundation of the Dublin Core ISO 15836 , an international standard for resource discovery, and has been reviewed, though not endorsed, by the Dublin Core Metadata Initiative Usage Board. PBCore extends Dublin Core by adding a number of elements specific to audiovisual AV assets. These AV assets can be physical analog media items, or digital media objects. PBCore provides a standard for cataloging and describing media objects in three general ways Intellectual Content provides descriptive metadata including Title, Subject, Description, and Genre. The Intellectual Content for the asset contains no metadata concerning the physical or digital representation of the asset. Intellectual Property provides metadata concerning the creator, distributor, and publisher of the AV asset, along with rights information about its use. Instantiation contains all technical metadata about the physical or digital representation of the AV asset. This can include format, media type, duration, file size, data rate, aspect ratio, frame rate, and many other aspects of the media object. The Instantiation metadata includes the location of the physical or digital media object, which in the case of a streaming media file can be its full URL. In PBCore there can be many Instantiations for the same AV asset, all of which share the same Intellectual Content metadata. PBCore provides an XSD allowing validation of PBCore XML records. PBCore XML can be used to exchange detailed metadata about media assets, and optionally the media assets themselves, among systems configured for the PBCore standard.

XML Tim Bray , who was one of the editors of the XML specification, has this to say in his note on Bosak in his annotated version of the specification ref http www.xml.com axml testaxml.htm Annotated version of the XML specification . ref quote Jon Bosak is the single person without whose efforts XML would most likely have failed to happen. He had come to appreciate the power and flexibility of SGML in his days running Novell s excellent on line documentation repository at http www.novell.com, and had acquired a conviction that HTML was not a suitable base on which to build the next layer of WWW Web infrastructure. Jon s stewardship of the XML process has been marked by a combination of deft political maneuvering with steadfast insistence on the principle of doing things based on principle, not expediency. In a 1999 posting to the xml dev mailing list, ref http lists.xml.org archives xml dev 199911 msg00642.html Posting to the xml dev mailing list , 199. ref Bray writes quote It is to Jon Bosak s immense credit that he like many of us not only saw the need for simplification but unlike anyone else went and hounded the W3C until it became less trouble for them to give him his committee than to keep on saying SGML was irrelevant. When he stepped down from the W3C XML Coordination Group in 2000, Jon Bosak was given the unusual recognition of having a formal identifier reserved for him In appreciation for his vision, leadership and dedication the W3C XML Plenary on this 10th day of February, 2000 reserves for Jon Bosak in perpetuity the XML name xml Father . ref http www.w3.org 2001 xml.xsd The XML Schema definition , lines 166 186 ref The Universal Business Language In 2001, Bosak organized the OASIS Universal Bus ... more details

Content and structure A WAR file may be digital signature digitally signed in the same way as a JAR file in order to assert that the code is trusted. There are special files and directories within a WAR file. The WEB INF directory in the WAR file contains a file named web.xml which defines the structure of the web application. If the web application is only serving JSP files, the web.xml file is not strictly necessary. If the web application uses servlets, then the servlet container uses web.xml to ascertain to which Java Servlet servlet a Uniform Resource Locator URL request is to be routed. web.xml is also used to define context variables which can be referenced within the servlets and it is used to define environmental dependencies which the deployer is expected to set up. An example of this is a dependency on a mail session used to send email. The servlet container is responsible for providing this service. Advantages of WAR files easy development, testing and deployment the version of the deployed application is easily identified all J2EE containers support .WAR files One disadvantage of web deployment using WAR files in very dynamic environments is that minor changes cannot be made during runtime.

It is a free and open source project distributed under the Apache License Apache license and runs on any JDK installation 1.5 or later . Click graduated into an Apache Software Foundation Apache top level project in November 2009. Overview The main design goals are simplicity, ease of use, performance and scalability. To achieve these goals Click leverages an intuitive page and component oriented design. Pages and components provide good encapsulation of web concepts and enables rapid application development. Click takes a pragmatic approach and expose few abstractions to learn and understand. The Java Servlet application programming interface API is fully exposed to the developer which eases the upgrade path from an action based framework to a component based one. Pages and components are developed in Java language Java while templates can be written in Jakarta Velocity Velocity , FreeMarker or JavaServer Pages JSP . Components know how to draw themselves alleviating developers from maintaining redundant markup. A major difference between Click and other component oriented web frameworks is that Click is stateless by design, although stateful pages are supported.

PRISM provides a framework for the interchange and preservation of content and metadata, a collection of elements to describe that content, and a set of controlled vocabularies listing the values for those elements. PRISM can be XML , RDF XML , or Extensible Metadata Platform XMP and incorporates Dublin Core elements. PRISM can be thought of as a set of XML Tag metadata tags used to contain the metadata of articles and even tag article content. PRISM conforms to the World Wide Web standard for Namespaces . PRISM namespaces are PRISM prism , PRISM Usage Rights pur , Dublin Core dc and dcterms , PRISM Inline Metadata pim , PRISM Rights Language prl , PRISM Aggregator Message pam , and PRISM Controlled Vocabulary pcv . PRISM incorporated existing industry standards such as Dublin Core and XHTML in order to leverage work that had already been done in the publishing industry. New elements were created only when required, and were assigned to PRISM specific namespaces . Overview PRISM consists of three specifications. The PRISM Specification, itself, provides definition for the overall PRISM framework. A second specification, the PRISM Aggregator Message PAM Schema DTD, is a standard format for publishers to use for delivery of content to websites, aggregators, and syndicators. PAM is available as an XML Document Type Definition DTD and an XML schema XSD . Both PAM formats provides a simple, flexible model for transmitting content and PRISM metadata.

It often refers to a distributed object protocol such as SOAP, CORBA or RMI, which is software only and which invokes the running of programs on remote servers. The term is a bit confusing, because it sounds like the physical layer layer 1 of the network that places the bits onto the wire. In some cases, it may refer to this layer however, it generally refers to protocols higher than the physical layer or even the next higher data link layer layer 2 such as Ethernet and ATM.
