The goal of XML <000001000>Protocol is to develop technologies which allow two or more peers to <000001000>communicate in a distributed environment, using XML as its encapsulation <000001000>language. Solutions developed by this activity allow a layered architecture on <000001000>top of an extensible and simple messaging format, which provides robustness, <000001000>simplicity, reusability and interoperability. The XML <000001000>Protocol Activity Statement explains the W3C's work on this topic in more <000001000>details.

<000000001> <000001000>

The first working group in this activity is the XML <000001000>Protocol Working Group.

<000000001> <000001000>

The initial focus of theXML Protocol Working Group is <000001000>to develop a framework for XML-based messaging systems, which includes <000001000>specifying a message envelope format and a method for data serialization, <000001000>directed mainly, but not exclusively, to RPC applications, and conforming with <000001000>the abovementioned principles. More specifics are available from the href="../../2000/09/XML-Protocol-Charter">Charter.

As a result of the increased interest in XML protocols, W3C and others have <000001000>recently organized several activities on various XML protocol related <000001000>activities including

There are many existing efforts in this area, from the transport level to <000001000>high-level long-life-cycle documents, most of them are already compiled in the <000001000>XML Protocol Matrix.
