CAM Building Blocks
CAM is built upon a number of existing standards:
- Extensible Markup Language (XML)
- CAM templates are expressed in a standardized XML
- XML Schema
- CAM provides an abstraction layer for XSD schema that makes manipulating and defining business information exchange templates significantly easier than using just XSD schema alone XML Schema.
- XPath V2.0
- CAM uses XPath extensively for defining rules and path target expressions that are at the heart of the CAM validator processing.
- XSLT scripting
- the existing open source solutions leverage XSLT extensively and particularly the Saxon XSLT processor (also available on SourceForge – Saxon
- electronic business XML(ebXML)
- core components and registry concepts developed for ebXML (ISO15000) provide significant conceptual foundations to the CAM approach to content assembly.
