Topic (XML)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In XML terminology, topic can mean

1. A resource that acts as a proxy for some subject; the topic map system's representation of that subject. The relationship between a topic and its subject is defined to be one of reification. Reification of a subject allows topic characteristics to be assigned to the topic that reifies it.
2. A <topic> element, used in many XML formats.
