Description:
Developers have said it: "XML is too slow!", where "slow" can mean many things including elapsed time, throughput, latency, memory use, and bandwidth consumption. The aim of this one-day symposium is to understand these problems better and to explore and share approaches to solving them. XML processing efficiency MIGHT be improved with streaming transformations and queries, faster parsing, document projection, parallel processing, application-specific optimization, and many other techniques. We'll talk about the state of the art in any or all of these areas, focussing on what impact such techniques can have at a system level: what practical effect they might have on the performance problems faced by real user workloads, or on the ability of XML to reach into areas where the costs have previously been prohibitive. Can performance benefits be achieved without sacrificing XML's hallmark attractions: validation, flexibility, high level declarative programming? The Symposium will be held on August 10, 2009 in Montreal, Canada, in conjunction with Balisage: The Markup Conference.
