Other international organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work. In the field of information technology, IS

17、O and IEC have established a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of the joint technical committee is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted

18、 by the joint technical committee are circulated to national bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the national bodies casting a vote.

22、19757 defines a set of Document Schema Definition Languages (DSDL) that can be used to specify oneor more validation processes performed against Extensible Markup Language (XML) documents. A number ofvalidation technologies are standardized in DSDL to complement those already available as standards

23、or fromindustry.The main objective of ISO/IEC 19757 is to bring together different validation-related technologies to form a singleextensible framework that allows technologies to work in series or in parallel to produce a single or a set ofvalidation results. The extensibility of DSDL accommodates

24、validation technologies not yet designed or specified.The motivations of this part of ISO/IEC 19757 are twofold. One is to allow the interworking of schemas describingdifferent markup vocabularies. The other is to allow these schemas to be written in different schema languages. Forthis purpose, this

25、 part of ISO/IEC 19757 specifies a Namespace-based Validation Dispatching Language (NVDL).The structure of this part of ISO/IEC 19757 is as follows. Clause 5 describes the data model, which is theabstraction of an XML document used throughout the rest of the document. Clause 6 describes the full syn

26、tax andthe simple syntax of NVDL scripts, and further describes the transformation from the full syntax to the simplesyntax. Clause 7 describes primitive operations for the NVDL data model, which are used for defining the NVDLsemantics. Clause 8 describes the semantics of a correct NVDL script in th

27、e simple syntax; the semantics specifyhow elements and attributes in a given document are dispatched to different validators and which schema is usedby each of these validators. Clause 9 describes conformance requirements for NVDL dispatchers. Annex A andAnnex B define the full syntax and the simple

28、 syntax using RELAX NG, respectively. Annex C defines the fullsyntax using NVDL and RELAX NG. Finally, Annex D provides examples of the application of NVDL.The origin of NVDL is JIS TR X 00444, which was created and then submitted to ISO/IEC JTC1 as a fast-trackISO/IEC DTR 22250-25 by the Japanese n

An NVDLscript

30、controls the dispatching of elements or attributes in a given XML document to different validators,depending on the namespaces of the elements or attributes. An NVDL script also specifies which schemas areused by these validators. These schemas may be written in any schema languages, including those
