Information Management base on XML
Abstract
As the Internet is developing fast, the appearance of web is changing the way of our life. And it also brings about some very important questions for database technology. That is to say how can we keep and manage the data or files on the web effectively. So they can be operated and maintained in a fast way and also can be exchanged or displayed very conveniently. From the appearance of XML technology, xml is developing very fast, and it owns supports from many fields. So we can believe it has very expansive future in applications. In many applications now we use, for example, electronic data processing and exchanging, E-business and so on. They take XML as the base and pivotal technology.
This paper is about the designing and realization of a library information system. The system is mainly based on struts, spring, and JDOM and schema technology. Using five layers software framework, the library system implements all the requirement of a library, including news putout, books information, reader information, borrowing books information, return books information and so on. This paper presents the designing of library system, and introduces the technology we use and the advantage of the framework. The library system in this paper is never using the tradition database. Instead of it, we use XML files as the database to storage the data information. In the end of the paper, it analyses the Native XML Databases technology and the development of the future.
