Too often, content models are developed with no consideration of the system in which they have to operate. This book is an examination of how content actually gets modeled inside a CMS -- what features and architectures are available to translate a theoretical domain model into something that a CMS can manage. If you're looking for a CMS, what features should you look for? Does your current CMS measure up to the state of the market? What is possible in content modeling at this point in the industry? Table of Contents Introduction About this Guide How a CMS Helps (Or Hinders) Your Content Model The Anatomy of a Content Model Eval #1: What is the built-in content model?

Timeout: Opinionated Software Eval #3: What built-in attribute types are available? Timeout: How Content Is Stored Eval #4: How is content represented in the API? Eval #5: How can attribute values be validated? Eval #6: How is the model supported in the editorial interface? Eval #7: Can an attribute value be a reference to another object? Timeout: Let's Evaluate the Current Level of Functionality Eval #8: Can an attribute value be an embedded content object? Eval #9: Can custom validation rules be built? Eval #10: Can custom attribute types be created? Eval #11: Can attribute values repeat? Eval #12: Can types be formed through inheritance or composition? Eval #13: Can content objects be organized into a hierarchy? Eval #14: Can content objects inherit from other content objects? Eval #15: What is the relationship between "pages" and "content"? Eval #16: Can access to types and attributes be limited by user permissions? Eval #17: How can rich text fields be structured? Eval #18: What options are available for dynamic page composition? Eval #19: What aggregation structures are available to organize content? Timeout: What Is and Isn't Considered "Content"? Eval #20: How can types be changed after object creation? Eval #21: How does the system model file assets? Eval #22: By what method is the content model actually defined? Eval #23: How does the system's API support the model?

Genre: Computers
ISBN: 9780735712867

Steven Holzner's friendly, easy-to-read style has turned this book (formerly known asInside XML) into the leading reference on XML. Unlike other XML books, this one is packed with hundreds of real-world examples, fully tested and ready to use! Holzner teaches you XML like no other author can, covering every major XML topic today and detailing the ways XML is used now--connecting XML to databases (both locally and on web servers), stying XML for viewing in today's web browsers, reading and parsing XML documents in browsers, writing and using XML schemas, creating graphical XML browsers, working with the Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP), and a great deal more. Real World XML is designed to be the standard in XML coverage--more complete, and more accessible, than any other. "The author's approach is definitely bottom up, written in a highly personable tone. He makes efficient use of example code, which sets this book apart from many I have read in the past. His examples bring to life the code without overwhelming the reader, and he does not present any examples for which the reader has not been prepared. In addition, no prior knowledge of XML is assumed. As such, this is an excellent book for both beginners and intermediate level web designers and programmers. Experts, too, will find this book of value, due to its emphasis on real world applicability. Overall, this book will benefit all web developers and programmers, with a special emphasis on beginner and intermediate developers."--Donna A. Dulo, MS, MA, Senior Systems Engineer, U.S. Department of Defense "This book will provide a brilliant basis for anyone wishing to keep up to speed with the new XML developments."--Mr. Andrew Madden, Department of Computer Science, University of Wales "I found this book's strengths to be: its exhaustive specification reference for the conscientious developer; access to the official specs, which is key; the wide variety of choices provided for all aspects of XML; several alternatives provided for each editor, browser, parser, stylesheet transform engine, and programming language; and working examples that show the power of the tools used."--Jaime Ryan, Software Developer/Documentation Manager, Blue Titan Software

This volume explores how context has been and can be used in computing to model human behaviors, actions and communications as well as to manage data and knowledge. It addresses context management and exploitation of context for sharing experience across domains. The book serves as a user-centric guide for readers wishing to develop context-based applications, as well as an intellectual reference on the concept of context. It provides a broad yet deep treatment of context in computing and related areas that depend heavily on computing. The coverage is broad because of its cross-disciplinary nature but treats topics at a sufficient depth to permit a reader to implement context in his/her computational endeavors. The volume addresses how context can be integrated in software and systems and how it can be used in a computing environment. Furthermore, the use of context to represent the human dimension, individually as well as collectively is explained. Contributions also include descriptions of how context has been represented in formal as well as non-formal, structured approaches. The last section describes several human behavior representation paradigms based on the concept of context as its central representational element. The depth and breadth of this content is certain to provide useful as well as intellectually enriching information to readers of diverse backgrounds who have an interest in or are intrigued by using context to assist in their representation of the real world.
