A Web-Based System for Handling Multidimensional Information through MXML
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we address an issue common in the frame of WWW namely information entities that present di erent facets under di erent contexts or worlds Handling such multifacet or multidimen sional entities requires a multidimensional paradigm for Web data which consists of representation manipulation and presentation issues For rep resenting multidimensional data we employ Multidimensional XML a markup language that incorporates dimensions in XML We discuss the presentation of multidimensional data through multidimensional XSL stylesheets We describe the design of a system that implements the ba sic functionality of the multidimensional paradigm and demonstrates how a user can interact with a multidimensional document and view di erent variants of the document under di erent worlds

Updating Multidimensional XML Documents
In Web applications it is often required to manipulate information of semistructured nature, which may present variations according to different circumstances. Multidimensional XML (MXML) is an extension of XML suitable for representing data that assume different facets, having different value and/or structure, under different contexts. In this paper, we consider the problem of updating MXML. U...

متن کاملRepresenting Time-dependent Information in Multidimensional XML
Multidimensional XML MXML is an extension of XML that incorporates dimensions in order to represent in an elegant and concise way context-dependent data, that is, data which can exhibit different variations in value or structure e.g. that can exist in different languages or various degrees of detail . In this paper we show that MXML dimensions can be used to express time and associate it with X...
