Visualization and structure analysis for efficient XML design

초록

XML is extensible data format and used in various areas. Thus it is proposed by independent criteria and updated frequently. But structures designed without explicit guidelines decrease dependencies in the future extension and efficiencies of parsing program. In this paper we study general structure and suggest direction for designs of efficient structures based on the relation between parsing time and complexity. We use parser for structure analysis, and propose visualization method using Cascade Style Sheet (CSS). Proposed method will provide structure analysis function for XML format designing continuously, and identify efficient structures. © 2010 IEEE.
