Re: Free JAVA Package for CC/PP Profiles Creation

Hi Luc, 



Thank you for your comment on the UPS schema.

 

To clarify the ideas about the UPS schema, I'd like to give some important notes:


- The UPS schema was created mainly to resolve the problem of the content negotiation over 

internet and heterogeneous networks.

- The UPS schema presents the idea of the creation of profiles for different elements which are

 required during the content negotiation task such as the client profile, the document profile (functionalities, metadata..), etc. 

Elements and attributes that exists actually can change and be extended in the future.

- Each element in a profile following the UPS schema defines a constraint (atomic or composite) about the 

described component.

- Constraints are resolved during the matching and the process of content negotiation by the content server. 

For the server constraints resolution that concerns UPS attributes, the name style such as the "interCap" one

is not important. Simply to retrieve the constraint semantic, the server ignores the style of attributes included 

in the profile and that are preceded by the "neg" namespace.   

 

Finally I'd like to note that the page : http://opera.inrialpes.fr/people/Tayeb.Lemlouma/NegotiationSchema/FAQ.html is 

reserved for all the FAQs about the universal profiling schema, please feel free to contribute on its content with any 

question, ideas or comments.



Thank you,

Best regards.

  Hi Tayeb,

  I took a look to your UPS and I have just a coment/question about it.

  You named attributes (like DeviceName, PixelStretch, etc.) without taking care of the "interCap" naming convention (http://www.w3.org/TR/CCPP-struct-vocab/#3.3.4)

  Why did you act this way ? (to differentiate some meanings ?)



  Best regards,

  Luc.
