RAPID XML DATABASE APPLICATION DEVELOPMENT

Abstract

This paper proposes a rapid prototyping framework for XML database application development. By splitting up the development process into several refinement steps while keeping the application programming interface stable, the framework aims at rapid implementation of a prototype with a well-defined interface and a subsequent implementation of more advanced concepts like business rules in several steps. The refinement process takes the form of incrementally adding domain-specific information to the application. This is achieved by transgressing from general-purpose XML tools that do not support the definition and enforcement of constraints to frameworks that support domain-specific models and constraints such as E/R modeling. We have employed this method in the development of an example application, and we give performance numbers that illustrate the incremental improvements of each step.
