XMI (XML Metadata Interchange) is a useful new extension of the XML standard. It is an essential improvement that gives programmers a lot more flexibility in writing software for sharing data. This book shows programmers how to write software using the latest XML standard.
Co-author Stephen Brodsky co-wrote the XMI specification, and is one of only a few people with enough experience to show how to use XMI in real-world applications.
Part One of the book introduces readers to essential XMI concepts and shows how XMI relates to XML and UML. Part Two shows how to program with XMI - including: Expressing data in XMI, Creating XMI documents with XML, APIs and the XMI Framework, XMI schemas and how XMI works with the Model Driven Architecture approach to developing software.
