Abstract
In this paper we describe how XML can be introduced into a compiler construction course. We make the case that XML and compilers have much in common, and that introducing XML into a compiler course makes sense. We then goes on to demonstrate how XML was used in two recent compiler courses. Finally, we discuss the tradeoffs of using an XML-based project rather than a traditional programming-language project.

Mapping of bibliographical standards into XML
The most popular bibliographical standards, which prescribe the exchange of bibliographical data in machine readable form, are MARC (Machine Readable Cataloguing) and UNIMARC (Universal Machine Readable Cataloguing). This paper presents two schemas, ...
XML-based XML schema access
WWW '07: Proceedings of the 16th international conference on World Wide WebXML Schema's abstract data model consists of components, which are the structures that eventually define a schema as a whole. XML Schema's XML syntax, on the other hand, is not a direct representation of the schema components, and it proves to be ...
