A component of Extensible Stylesheet Language (see XSL), XSLT controls views of Extensible Markup Language (XML) documents and the ordering of XML elements. It is used to create new content structures from existing structures or subsets, based on interest, access privileges or security, and it transforms XML structure to Hypertext Markup Language (HTML).

Extensible Stylesheet Language (XSL) associates presentation characteristics (e.g., layout) with the markup used in Extensible Markup Language (XML). One of the XML family of languages developed by the World Wide Web Consortium, XSL is used to create XML “stylesheets,” which describe how XML documents are presented. XSL provides independent control of presentation from content and can describe output of the same content to different formats (e.g., audio or print).
XSL is made up of three components: • XSL Transformations (see XSLT) • XML Path Language (see XPath) • XSL Formatting Objects, an XML vocabulary for specifying formatting semantics

Extensible Markup Language (XML) is a W3C open standard for describing data using embedded tags. Unlike HTML, XML does not describe how to display elements on the page but rather defines what the elements contain. It has become the standard for business-to-business transactions, electronic-data interchanges and Web services.

The eXtensible Business Reporting Language (XBRL) is an XML-defined standard used for analyzing, exchanging, and reporting financial and other business information. It defines the contents of financial reports and statements to make it easier to disseminate, access and compare financial information. XBRL is an open standard, free of license fees. It provides an identifying tag for each item of financial data instead of treating financial information as a block of text, as in a standard Internet page or printed document.

Extensible authentication protocol (EAP) is an extensible framework and transport for other network access authentication protocols. The original dial-up Point-To-Point Protocol (PPP) provided only basic security by using Password Authentication Protocol (PAP) and Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP). EAP was added to support more-sophisticated authentication, particularly on wireless networks.

Involves identifying human expertise, determining the status of that resource and integrating the person or expertise into the interaction process. It is used to maintain in-depth representations of skills, geographic locations, availability and other parameters relevant to the use of the expertise.
Industry:Technology
A software system that can learn new procedures by analyzing the outcome of past events, or that contains a knowledge base of rules that can be applied to new data or circumstances not explicitly anticipated by the developer. Applications include network management, database management and data mining, computer vision and image processing, speech recognition, biometrics and software for complex evaluation in such fields as petroleum geology.

Event-triggered marketing includes identifying, categorizing, monitoring, optimizing and executing events (such as channel reconciliation). It can be applied in a multichannel relationship (such as social, mobile, direct mail, inbound call conversions, lead management and email marketing). It’s an approach to B2B and business-to-consumer marketing that addresses the appropriate timeliness of offers from the customer’s perspective, rather than the company’s perspective.
