Sybase PowerDisigner XML Model 用户指南（一）

声明：本人非专业翻译，只是最近学到PowerDesigner XML Model，但中文资料不是很多，签于自已英文水平太差，只好硬着头皮看，翻译肯定有问题，为了方便学习放在网络上，仅供个人参考，有错的地方望指正，谢谢@_@!（原版请参考 Sybase

About This Book
This book describes the PowerDesigner XML Model environment. It shows
you how to do the following:
♦ Build an XML model
♦ Work on an XML model
♦ Generate and reverse engineer a DTD file
♦ Generate and reverse engineer an XSD file
♦ Generate an XML model from a PDM
♦ Generate an XML model from an OOM
♦ Generate an XML model from another XML model
This book is for anyone who will be designing or building an XML model
with PowerDesigner. It requires an understanding of XML. Some experience
with XML Schema might also be helpful but not required. For more
information, see the Bibliography section at the end of this chapter.
The PowerDesigner modeling environment supports several types of models:
♦ Conceptual Data Model (CDM) to model the overall logical structure
of a data application, independent from any software or data storage
structure considerations
♦ Physical Data Model (PDM) to model the overall physical structure of
a database, taking into account DBMS software or data storage structure
considerations
♦ Object Oriented Model (OOM) to model a software system using an
object-oriented approach for Java or other object languages
♦ Business Process Model (BPM) to model the means by which one or
more processes are accomplished in operating business practices
♦ XML Model (XSM) to model the structure of an XML file using a DTD
or an XML schema

（关于本书

本书介绍了PowerDdesigner XML 模型环境，将告诉您如何做到以下几个方面：

1、建立一个XML模型

2、XML模型如何工作

3、产生逆向DTD工程文件

4、产生逆向XSD工程文件

5、从PDM生成XML模型

6、从OOM生成XML模型

7、从XML生成XML模型

这本书适合任何人用PowerDesigner设计和建立XML模型，需要对XML具有一定的了解，

有一定的XML Schema经验对学习XML模式是有用的，但不是必需的。如需详细的信息请参考相关章节。

PowerDesigner建模环境支持以下几种类型的模式：

1、   概念数据模型（CDM）：详细解释请参考各个模型介绍

2、   物理数据模型（PDM）

3、   面向对象数据模型（OOM）

4、   业物流程数据模型（BPM）

5、   XML数据模型（XSM）

6、   基它数据模型（FEM）
