| But, in spite of the positive features and prospects of XML, two things must be kept in mind. [It is not yet clear when and how and which XML business vocabularies will penetrate e-commerce applications.] Furthermore, XML is solely a description language to specify the structure of documents and thus their syntactic dimension. Document structure can represent some semantic properties but it is not clear how this can be deployed outside of special purpose applications. DTD and document structure are not enough to give XML a sound semantics. Therefore it will be necessary to appoint true semantics to XML documents with RDF and ontologies. | In spite of these positive features and prospects of XML it must be clearly stated that XML is solely a description language to specify the structure of documents and thus their syntactic dimension. The document structure can represent some semantic properties but it is not clear how this can be deployed outside of special purpose applications. We will define in this paper how to add true semantics to XML documents by relating the document structure to an ontology.
[...] Of course concepts and relationships have to be expressed and stored in linear form in documents; but this is pure representation, i.e. DTDs and the document structure are not enough to give XML a sound semantics. |
