An architecture, functions and relative technology of a service-orientated DL are discussed in this article. Years of research and development of some key techniques and related technologies of digital library have established an important technical foundation for developing a practical digital library. A dozen of digital Libraries can be summarized in three main types as the following: a DL of special collection; a service-orientated DL; a DL with commercial database. Architecture of a service-orientated DL: It is based on an electronically resources which are accessed through a unique interface. Patrons are consulted on Virtual Reference Desk if you have any questions.
Metadata structure and extended rules are two keys while designing descriptive metadata. This study focuses on these two key problems, and illustrates the metadata basic structure, the composing elements and the extended rules according to the practice metadata standards of rare books, rubbings and atlases. It will enhance interoperability among the metadata standards for different resource objects that these problems are considered in metadata designing.

In working out the metadata standard for audio materials, we should define correctly the objects of description, determine their relationships, and at the same time make clear the component elements of metadata in accordance with the characteristics displayed by those objects and users’ specific needs. The entity layers described by FRBR help us select a proper level for resource description, and decide on the relevant structure of the elements in line with the resource characteristics and user needs. Besides, the 3-dimensional structure of the FRBR model inspires us with a new thought on metadata structures.
This paper discusses the application of UML to Object-Oriented requirement analysis, and points out that it is an effective method of requirement analysis to regard use case as the core of requirement organizing. According
to an instance, several key issues of building use case model have been analyzed and discussed.
XL- an XML programming language has been designed abroad for the implementation of Web Services. XL is fully compliant with W3C standards. One of the key features of XL is that it allows programmers to concentrate on the logic of their application. XL provides high level and declarative constructs for actions typically carried out in the implementation of a Web Service, the productivity of the programmers, the ability of evolution of the programs, and the chances to achieve good performance are substantially enhanced. This paper mainly introduces syntax of XL and gives an example of a Web Service written in XL.

Information retrieval in distributed and heterogeneous databases is an urgent problem nowadays. In this paper, a standard protocol is proposed to give an efficient method to solve this problem. This protocol has two main parts. First, a standard search Webservice is given by analyzing many metadata standards and databases. By using this standard Webservice, all databases can distribute uniform search webservice. Then an effective method to select and find the search Webservice is introduced, which is an extension of UDDI.
According to the implementations of E-Resources Navigating Systems of Tsinghua University Library, this paper specifies the requirements of these kinds of Services; and provides the technical solutions of the practical systems.
Study on Internet information organization has being a research focus in the information management field.

The methods of the XML data storage based on RDBMS can be classified into two types. The first type is based on the physical structure of the XML document, the second one is based on the logical structure of the XML document which is described by DTD or Schema. The first type can also be classified into the method based on the edges and the method based on the points. The paper studies and compares the given methods through an XML sample.
In order to keep up with the development of Internet, XML database was produced. XML database is a new technology. Comparing XML database with the traditional database, XML database is suitable for accessing the semi -structured data, it can represent knowledge and migrate data, and it can also integrate the heterogeneous database system. These special advantages of XML database will have a great influence upon the management of network information recourses.
