Xml Design and Implementation

XML is a mark up language which allows you to define your own tags, and to define data rather than format it.

It will stress the benefits of XML in informational systems, where it can be used to separate content from presentation, and in transactional systems, where it can act as a low-cost alternative to EDI protocols.
