Trends to Watch: Trends in Information and Communications Technology That May Influence Developments in Access to Medical Instrumentation
Published in Jack M. Winters, Molly Follette Story, Medical Instrumentation, 2006
XForms [13] is a second-generation forms technology developed by W3C. It resembles the URC standards in assuring the integrity of the business logic of the dialog and leaving the presentation aspects up to the best efforts of others. XForms may have fewer limitations as to service complexity than the URC standards, but on the other hand, it requires the developer to do more of the data-communication layer in the way that it would be done in the wide area network (WAN) context of the Internet. This is not always an obvious choice in the home or even in a hospital.

Explicitly declarative descriptions of forms and their corresponding graphical user interfaces are achieved by using XML-technologies, such as XForms. Typically, the content and structure of a form is specified as XML-tree using tags of a defined XML, whereas the layout is described through templates saved in a CSS-file or XSLT-file. Depending on specified transformation rules the XML-tags and the XSLT-templates are combined and processed to build up the requested form.

Shahzad (2017) presented a simple, interactive, and browser-based Web application that was developed by using one of the latest Web development frameworks. Finally, Sayih and Brggemann-Klein (2016) proposed an XML-based solution for Web app development by using a set of XML technologies, including extensible hypertext markup language (XHTML) and XML forms language (XForms), scalable vector graphics (SVG), CSS, and user interface markup language (UIML). Both XHTML and XForms were used for data access and menus implementation, whereas SVG were used to display the graphical elements. Finally, CSS were used for the formatting and UIML for the graphical user interface design.
