Efficient XML Interchange (EXI) Profile for limiting usage of dynamic
memory is a W3C Recommendation
9 September 2014 | Archive
http://www.w3.org/blog/news/archives/4050
The EXI Working Group published the " Efficient XML Interchange
(EXI) Profile for limiting usage of dynamic memory" as W3C
Recommendation. EXI 1.0 is a very efficient format to represent
an XML Information Set. It is highly customizable to fit the
need of diverse use cases, ranging from B2B applications down
to embedded-systems use. It satisfies compactness and
processing efficiency requirements, while preserving all the
information contained in the XML InfoSet. As a representation
of XML, it is by design naturally extensible.
http://www.w3.org/XML/EXI
http://www.w3.org/TR/2014/REC-exi-profile-20140909/
EXI is able to handle deviation or extensions from the Schema
in use very efficiently thanks to its self-augmenting grammar
system. However, This sometimes poses a challenge for
low-memory systems, such as sensors and microcontrollers,
embedded in power grids, vehicles, or other small devices.
This EXI Profile addresses this issue by permitting
applications to define profiles that are interoperable and best
suit systems memory constraints, while maintaining its full
extensibility.

The Device APIs Working Group invites implementation of two
Candidate Recommendations:
http://www.w3.org/2009/dap/

extension that facilitates user access to a device’s media
capture mechanism, such as a camera, or microphone, from
within a file upload control.
