Abstract. This paper outlines a methodology
for designing information systems based on XML. The
methodology uses XML DTDs to define the design standards,
and the structure and constraints of the design specifications.
The result of the design process is a set of valid
XML documents that are the specifications of transaction
programs and applications of the information system.
At the start of a design process, the methodology
uses a CASE tool to map user requirements into initial
XML specifications. Final design specifications are
produced by a sequence of XSL transformations of the
initial XML specifications. A key feature of the methodology
is that it produces a platform independent design
of an information system. To enable an early feedback
from users, the methodology uses further XSL transformations
that produce an executable prototype of the information
system in the Java programming environment.
