Abstract

A Web service architecture is described for bidirectional XML updating. The updating mechanism exploits the power of bidirectional transformation so that users can update remote XML data by editing a view on the local machine that is generated by a transformation of the XML data. This architecture consists of three tiers: data viewer clients, a bidirectional transformation engine, and content servers accessible through the Internet. Due to the use of standard Web service technologies, the data viewer clients and content servers can be easily replaced with ones chosen by the user. Users can use this architecture to implement their own applications that exploit the power of bidirectional transformation without the burden of installing and maintaining a bidirectional language package.
