Structured Graph Format: XML Metadata for Describing Web Site Structure
نویسندگان
چکیده
To improve searching, filtering and processing of information on the Web, a common effort is made in the direction of Metadata, defined as “machine understandable information about Web resources or other things”. In particular, the eXtensible Markup Language (XML) aims at providing a common syntax to emerging Metadata formats. With this idea, we propose the Structured Graph Format (SGF), an XML compliant markup language based on structured graphs, for capturing Web sites’ structure. We also present SGMapper, a client-side tool, which aims to facilitate navigation in large Web sites by generating highly interactive site maps using SGF Metadata. 1998 Published by Elsevier Science B.V.

Using Relational Database metadata to generate enhanced XML structure and document
Relational databases get more and more employed in order to store the contents of a web site. At the same time, XML is fast emerging as the dominant standard at the hypertext level of web site management, describing pages and links between them. Thus, the integration of XML with relational database systems to enable the storage, retrieval and update of XML documents is of major importance. Also...
متن کاملDiscovering the structure of large web sites
Several techniques have been recently proposed to automatically generate web wrappers, i.e., programs that extract data from HTML pages, and transform them into a more structured format, typically in XML. These techniques automatically induce a wrapper from a set of sample pages that share a common HTML template. An open issue, however, is how to collect suitable classes of sample pages to feed...
متن کاملVirtual Worlds as Metaphors for Web Sites Exploration: Are They Effective?
This work discusses the effectiveness of desktop virtual reality as a metaphor for navigating through information in structured Web sites. The work is based on a model for information classification and an architecture for generating VR interfaces from XML and DTD documents describing the Web site structure.
متن کاملOn Partial Encryption of RDF-Graphs
In this paper a method for Partial RDF Encryption (PRE) is proposed in which sensitive data in an RDF-graph is encrypted for a set of recipients while all non-sensitive data remain publicly readable. The result is an RDF-compliant self-describing graph containing encrypted data, encryption metadata, and plaintext data. For the representation of encrypted data and encryption metadata, the XML-En...
