ABSTRACT:
A storage manager represents XML-compliant documents as a collection of objects, each associated with an element of the XML document. The objects are created with a hierarchy that conforms to the hierarchy of elements in the XML document. Access to the document is then through methods of the objects exposed to application programs through a programming interface. The methods provide a consistent interface to documents regardless of how the data associated with the documents is stored in memory. Consequently, the underlying content of XML documents can be stored using a distributed virtual object system that provides a mechanism for multiple processes to access each object. As an example of the benefits of such a storage manager, the storage manager may be used to maintain a telespace, such as may store information shared by multiple users participating in a collaboration session.
