       <h2>Project Description</h2>

       <h3>EMF/SDO</h3>

       <p>EMF is a modeling framework and code generation facility
       for building tools and other applications based on a
       structured data model. From a model specification described
       in XMI, EMF provides tools and runtime support to produce a
       set of Java classes for the model, a set of adapter classes
       that enable viewing and command-based editing of the model,
       and a basic editor. Models can be specified using annotated
       Java, XML documents, or modeling tools like Rational Rose,
       then imported into EMF. Most important of all, EMF provides
       the foundation for interoperability with other EMF-based
       tools and applications.</p>

       <p>EMF includes an EMF-based implementation of Service Data
       Objects (SDO). SDO is a framework that simplifies and unifies
       data application development in a service oriented
       architecture (SOA). It supports and integrates XML and
       incorporates J2EE patterns and best practices.</p>

       <h3>XSD</h3>

       <p>The XML Schema Infoset Model is a reference library for
       use with any code that examines, creates or modifies XML
       Schemas (standalone or as part of other artifacts, such as
       XForms or WSDL documents).</p>

       <p>It provides an
       <img border="0" src="../external.gif" width="20" height="16"><a
       href="http://download.eclipse.org/technology/xsd/javadoc/org/eclipse/xsd/package-summary.html#details">API</a>

       for manipulating the components of an XML Schema as described
       by the <img border="0" src="../external.gif" width="20" height="16"><a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/XMLSchema-0">W3C XML Schema</a>

       specifications, as well as an API for manipulating the
       DOM-accessible representation of XML Schema as a series of
       XML documents, and for keeping these representations in
       agreement as schemas are modified.</p>

       <p>
         <b>Executive Summary:</b>
       </p>

       <p>The themes for development in EMF/SDO &amp; XSD 2.1.0 are
       as follows:</p>

       <ul>
         <li>
         <b>Make it Faster</b>

         - Develop detailed performance benchmarks for the runtime
         components, tune their performance, and track the progress
         with each build.</li>

         <br />

         <li>
         <b>Generator Reusability</b>

         - Provide better extension mechanisms to make the generator
         and templates more reusable and more easily tailored.</li>

         <br />

         <li>
         <b>Java 2 Standard Edition 5 Support</b>

         - While unclear at time of writing what this will entail,
         it is hoped that the next release of EMF/SDO can exploit
         the new J2SE version 5 to some extent.</li>

         <br />

         <li>
         <b>SDO 1.1 Support</b>

         - While unclear at time of writing what this will entail,
         it is expected that the next release of EMF/SDO will
         support the new SDO 1.1 standard to some extent.</li>

         <br />

         <li>
         <b>Release Currency With Eclipse</b>

         - Provide drivers to match Eclipse milestones.</li>
       </ul>
