Abstract: Data transformation can be performed across various data structures and formats. Moreover, data transformation can be format agnostic. Output data of a second structure can be generated as a function of input data of a first structure and a transform independent of the format of input and output data. In one instance, the transform can be specified by way of a graphical representation and encoded in a form independent of input and output data formats. Subsequently, data transformation can be performed as a function of the transform and input data.

Abstract: The claimed subject matter provides a system and/or a method that facilitates implementing a binding between a radio frequency identification (RFID) process and a device. An RFID process can receive a tag read event from a device and make the tag read event available for at least one high level application. A binding engine can bind the RFID process to the device while decoupling a design time activity and a deployment time activity associated with the RFID process. In addition, the binding engine can include at least one of a device mapping component that employs a device binding; and a component configuration module that employs a component binding.

Abstract: Mapping XML elements to complex relational database structures. One method includes acts for storing mark-up language representations of data in a complex relational database structure. The method includes receiving an XSD document. The XSD document defines at least one type that should be mapped to a complex relational database type. The XSD document is mapped to a relational database structure. An XML document is received. The XML document is interpreted according to the XSD document. One or more elements of the XML document are mapped to complex relational database elements based on mapping of the XSD document to the relational database structure.
