XML and Java Technology

Description:
What could be a better match than Java, the most portable programming language, and XML, the most portable data format. Both XML and Java have gained rapid acceptance in today's information technology infrastructure, going well beyond their initial introduction as tools for building Internet applications. This seminar will provide a technical overview of XML and related technologies, and it will illustrate how to process XML documents using the Java programming language. Several examples will be used to illustrate and reinforce the underlying concepts.
 
Audience:
This overview seminar is designed for Java software developers who are interested in using XML for processing and communicating hierarchical data. Participants are expected to have experience in developing software with the Java programming language. Prior knowledge of XML is not required, but some familiarity with markup languages such as HTML is assumed.
