  • Why ODF?” - the Importance of Opendocument Format for Governments
    “Why ODF?” - The Importance of OpenDocument Format for Governments Documents are the life blood of modern governments and their citizens. Governments use documents to capture knowledge, store critical information, coordinate activities, measure results, and communicate across departments and with businesses and citizens. Increasingly documents are moving from paper to electronic form. To adapt to ever-changing technology and business processes, governments need assurance that they can access, retrieve and use critical records, now and in the future. OpenDocument Format (ODF) addresses these issues by standardizing file formats to give governments true control over their documents. Governments using applications that support ODF gain increased efficiencies, more flexibility and greater technology choice, leading to enhanced capability to communicate with and serve the public. ODF is the ISO Approved International Open Standard for File Formats ODF is the only open standard for office applications, and it is completely vendor neutral. Developed through a transparent, multi-vendor/multi-stakeholder process at OASIS (Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards), it is an open, XML- based document file format for displaying, storing and editing office documents, such as spreadsheets, charts, and presentations. It is available for implementation and use free from any licensing, royalty payments, or other restrictions. In May 2006, it was approved unanimously as an International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) standard. Governments and Businesses are Embracing ODF The promotion and usage of ODF is growing rapidly, demonstrating the global need for control and choice in document applications. For example, many enlightened governments across the globe are making policy decisions to move to ODF.

  • Extensible Markup Language (XML) and Its Role in Supporting the Global Justice XML Data Model
    Extensible Markup Language (XML) and Its Role in Supporting the Global Justice XML Data Model Extensible Markup Language, or "XML," is a computer programming language designed to transmit both data and the meaning of the data. XML accomplishes this by being a markup language, a mechanism that identifies different structures within a document. Structured information contains both content (such as words, pictures, or video) and an indication of what role content plays, or its meaning. XML identifies different structures by assigning data "tags" to define both the name of a data element and the format of the data within that element. Elements are combined to form objects. An XML specification defines a standard way to add markup language to documents, identifying the embedded structures in a consistent way. By applying a consistent identification structure, data can be shared between different systems, up and down the levels of agencies, across the nation, and around the world, with the ease of using the Internet. In other words, XML lays the technological foundation that supports interoperability. XML also allows structured relationships to be defined. The ability to represent objects and their relationships is key to creating a fully beneficial justice information sharing tool. A simple example can be used to illustrate this point: A "person" object may contain elements like physical descriptors (e.g., eye and hair color, height, weight), biometric data (e.g., DNA, fingerprints), and social descriptors (e.g., marital status, occupation). A "vehicle" object would also contain many elements (such as description, registration, and/or lien-holder). The relationship between these two objects—person and vehicle— presents an interesting challenge that XML can address.

  • Odfweave Manual
    The OdfWeave Package Max Kuhn max.kuhn@pfizer.com August 7, 2007 1 Introduction The Sweave function (Leisch, 2002) is a powerful component of R. It can be used to combine R code with LATEX so that the output of the code is embedded in the processed document. The capabilities of Sweave were later extended to HTML format in the R2HTML package. A written record of an analysis can be created using Sweave, but additional annotation of the results may be needed such as context–specific interpretation of the results. Sweave can be used to automatically create reports, but it can be difficult for researchers to add their subject–specific insight to pdf or HTML files. The odfWeave package was created so that the functionality of Sweave can used to generate documents that the end–user can easily edit. The markup language used is the Open Document Format (ODF), which is an open, non– proprietary format that encompasses text documents, presentations and spreadsheets. Version 1.0 of the specification was finalized in May of 2005 (OASIS, 2005). One year later, the format was approved for release as an ISO and IEC International Standard. There are several editors/office suites that can produce ODF files. OpenOffice is a free, open source editor that, as of version 2.0, uses ODF as the default format. odfWeave has been tested with OpenOffice to produce text documents. As of the current version, odfWeave processing of presentations and spreadsheets should be considered to be experimental (but should be supported in subsequent versions). OpenOffice can be used to export the document to MS Word, rich text format, HTML, plain text or pdf formats.

  • Extensible Markup Language (XML)
    15 Extensible Markup Language (XML) Objectives • To mark up data, using XML. • To understand the concept of an XML namespace. • To understand the relationship between DTDs, Schemas and XML. • To create Schemas. • To create and use simple XSLT documents. • To transform XML documents into XHTML, using class XslTransform. • To become familiar with BizTalk™. Knowing trees, I understand the meaning of patience. Knowing grass, I can appreciate persistence. Hal Borland Like everything metaphysical, the harmony between thought and reality is to be found in the grammar of the language. Ludwig Wittgenstein I played with an idea and grew willful, tossed it into the air; transformed it; let it escape and recaptured it; made it iridescent with fancy, and winged it with paradox. Oscar Wilde Chapter 15 Extensible Markup Language (XML) 657 Outline 15.1 Introduction 15.2 XML Documents 15.3 XML Namespaces 15.4 Document Object Model (DOM) 15.5 Document Type Definitions (DTDs), Schemas and Validation 15.5.1 Document Type Definitions 15.5.2 Microsoft XML Schemas 15.5.3 W3C XML Schema 15.5.4 Schema Validation in C# 15.6 Extensible Stylesheet Language and XslTransform 15.7 Microsoft BizTalk™ 15.8 Summary 15.9 Internet and World Wide Web Resources 15.1 Introduction The Extensible Markup Language (XML) was developed in 1996 by the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C’s) XML Working Group. XML is a portable, widely supported, open technology (i.e., non-proprietary technology) for describing data. XML is becoming the standard for storing data that is exchanged between applications. Using XML, document authors can describe any type of data, including mathematical formulas, software-configu- ration instructions, music, recipes and financial reports.
