INFO-H-509 : XML and Web Technologies
The evolution of the World Wide Web has seen an explosion of data
communication technologies, protocols, and standards such as XML,
DTDs, XML Schema, XPath, XSLT, DOM, SAX, RDF, OWL, … . In this
course we decipher this alphabet soup of web technologies. The global
goal is to obtain both a fundamental insight into the formal theory
behind these technologies as well working knowledge of how they are
used in practice.
The main course objectives and developed competences, as well as the examination modalities are summarized in the course plan (general course information document).
