Document Schema Definition Languages (DSDL) is a framework within which multiple validation tasks of different types can be applied to an XML document in order to achieve more complete validation results than just the application of a single technology.
It is specified as a multi-part ISO/IEC Standard, ISO/IEC 19757. It was developed by ISO/IEC JTC1/SC34 (ISO/IEC Joint Technical Committee 1, Subcommittee 34 - Document description and processing languages).
DSDL defines a modular set of specifications for describing the document structures, data types, and data relationships in structured information resources.
- Part 2: Regular-grammar-based validation – RELAX NG
- Part 3: Rule-based validation – Schematron
- Part 4: Namespace-based Validation Dispatching Language (NVDL)
- Part 5: Extensible Datatypes
- Part 7: Character Repertoire Description Language (CREPDL)
- Part 8: Document Semantics Renaming Language (DSRL)
- Part 9: Namespace and datatype declaration in Document Type Definitions (DTDs) (Datatype- and namespace-aware DTDs)
- Part 11: Schema Association
Famous quotes containing the words document, definition and/or languages:
“What is a diary as a rule? A document useful to the person who keeps it, dull to the contempory who reads it, invaluable to the student, centuries afterwards, who treasures it!”
—Ellen Terry (1848–1928)
“No man, not even a doctor, ever gives any other definition of what a nurse should be than this—”devoted and obedient.” This definition would do just as well for a porter. It might even do for a horse. It would not do for a policeman.”
—Florence Nightingale (1820–1910)
“The trouble with foreign languages is, you have to think before your speak.”
—Swedish proverb, trans. by Verne Moberg.
