Plone And Content Management, George K. Thiruvathukal, Konstantin Läufer
Plone And Content Management, George K. Thiruvathukal, Konstantin Läufer
George K. Thiruvathukal
In this column, the authors look at Plone, which they feel is one of the best content management systems available today. Even better, it?s distributed under a free open-source license: the cost of getting started is only limited to the time you have available to set up the software on a server. Plone is written in Python and uses the Zope application server infrastructure; it runs on most modern operating systems. The authors have even set it up at Loyola University Chicago in the Department of Computer Science. Besides being two faculty members who rely on Plone to host all …
Taming Xml: Objects First, Then Markup, Matt Bone, Peter Nabicht, Konstantin Läufer, George K. Thiruvathukal
Taming Xml: Objects First, Then Markup, Matt Bone, Peter Nabicht, Konstantin Läufer, George K. Thiruvathukal
George K. Thiruvathukal
Processing markup in object-oriented languages often requires the programmer to focus on the objects generating the markup rather than the more pertinent domain objects. The BetterXML framework aims to improve this situation by allowing the programmer to develop a domain-specific object model as usual and later bind this model to preexisting or newly generated markup. To this end, the framework provides two types of object trees, XElement and NaturalXML, for representing XML documents. XElement goes beyond DOM-like automatic parsing of XML by supporting the custom mapping of elements to domain objects; NaturalXML allows the mapping of existing domain objects to …
Xml In Computational Science, George K. Thiruvathukal
Xml In Computational Science, George K. Thiruvathukal
George K. Thiruvathukal
In this first article in a series about XML in computational science, I present some background and lightweight examples of XML usage, describe some XML component frameworksalong with their purpose and applicability to computational science, and discuss some technical obstacles to overcome for the language to be taken seriously in computational science.
Natural Xml For Data Binding, Processing, And Persistence, George K. Thiruvathukal, Konstantin Läufer
Natural Xml For Data Binding, Processing, And Persistence, George K. Thiruvathukal, Konstantin Läufer
George K. Thiruvathukal
The article explains what you need to do to incorporate XML directly into your computational science application. The exploration involves the use of a standard parser to automatically build object trees entirely from application-specific classes. This discussion very much focuses on object-oriented programming languages such as Java and Python, but it can work for non-object-oriented languages as well. The ideas in the article provide a glimpse into the Natural XML research project.
