What is this book about? If you're a Java programmer working with XML, you probablyalready use some of the tools developed by the Apache SoftwareFoundation. This book is a code-intensive guide to the Apache XMLtools that are most relevant for Java developers, including Xerces,Xalan, FOP, Cocoon, Axis, and Xindice. Theodore Leung, a founding member of the Apache XML Project,focuses on the unique capabilities of these best-of-breed XMLtools. With the help of a sample application, he demonstrates howyou can use them in unison to develop professional XML/Javaapplications for the real world. If you need in-depth information to help you assemble a workabletoolbox for developing sophisticated XML-based applications, you'llfind it in this volume. What does this book cover? In this book, you will find out about the following: How the Apache XML Project relates to Java programming When you'll need some of Xerces' extra parsing features, likegrammar caching How to use Xalan's XSLTC to compile XSLT stylesheets intoJava Prerequisites and applications for FOP and Batik Cocoon concepts and development Development techniques and practical usage for Xindice How to develop back-end applications with XML RPC and Axis Applications and concepts for XML Security Who is this book for? This book is written for professional Java developers who havehad some exposure to XML and XSLT. To get the most from it, youshould be familiar with Java, Java Web development technologies(e.g., servlets), and the command line Java tools.

XML in Data Management is for IT managers and technical staff involved in the creation, administration, or maintenance of a data management infrastructure that includes XML. For most IT staff, XML is either just a buzzword that is ignored or a silver bullet to be used in every nook and cranny of their organization. The truth is in between the two. This book provides the guidance necessary for data managers to make measured decisions about XML within their organizations. Readers will understand the uses of XML, its component architecture, its strategic implications, and how these apply to data management. Takes a data-centric view of XML Explains how, when, and why to apply XML to data management systems Covers XML component architecture, data engineering, frameworks, metadata, legacy systems, and more Discusses the various strengths and weaknesses of XML technologies in the context of organizational data management and integration

It is our great pleasure to present the proceedings of the 9th IFIP TC-6 TC-11 Conference on Communications and Multimedia Security (CMS 2005), which was held in Salzburg on September 19 – 21, 2005.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the First International XML Database Symposium, XSym 2003, held in Berlin, Germany in September 2003. The 18 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 65 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on XML-relational database management systems, XML query processing, systems and tools for XML data processing, XML access structures, stream processing and updates, and design issues.

A practical, global-centric view of how to make the worldwide supply chain safer, more resilient, and efficient. With more and more enterprises managing supply operations that reach farther and farther from headquarters, Supply Chain Security: International Practices and Innovations in Moving Goods Safely and Efficiently could not be more timely or well-targeted. This comprehensive two-volume set is the first look at the present and future of supply chain management, and the full range of threats to supply chain security. Each volume of Supply Chain Security focuses on a specific area: the first explores the historic context and current operational environment in which supply chain security must function. Volume Two is a look at emerging issues that includes proven, innovative steps companies and governments can take to counter the inherent risks of moving goods and people more safely and efficiently. Reflecting its subject, this resource is truly global in perspective, with contributions from 18 countries and over two-thirds of its contributors from outside the United States. No company that does business internationally should be without this essential resource.

How can the Internet and world wide web improve my long-term competitive advantage? This book helps answer this question by providing a better understanding of the technologies, their potential applications and the ways they can be used to add value for customers, support new strategies, and improve existing operations. It is not just about e-commerce but the broader theme of e-business which affects products, business processes, strategies, and relationships with customers, suppliers, distributors and competitors. To cover future trends, the editors have collected papers from authors operating at the frontiers of the developments so the reader can more appreciate the directions in which these technologies are heading. The resulting 165 essays have been collated into ten sections, which have been grouped in three parts: key issues, applications areas and applications, tools and technologies. A business rarely makes radical changes but is constantly making adjustments to circumstances. Businesses must now adapt to the global implications of the Internet and world wide web. This book hopes to aid awareness of the implications so that the changes are managed wisely.
