| Since XML technologies are currently exploited as a de-facto standard in numerous spheres of human activities, the demand for efficient XML processing is increasing every day. A natural approach to its optimization is exploitation of a hardware designed particularly for the purpose of XML processing. But this solution brings several open questions such as, e.g., what is the current state of the art of such appliances, in which situations is this solution suitable or what are the related advantages and disadvantages.
The aim of this work is to compare and analyze features of standard fully software and hardware accelerated solutions for XML processing from the point of view of currently supported technologies, efficiency, price and other relevant aspects. Firstly, it is necessary to select an appropriate appliance and describe its XML processing features. The core of the work is specification of appropriate testing scenarios which will focus on key features of the appliance and analysis of the related results. The second part of the thesis will focus on selecting suitable fully software implementations of the supported XML technologies and comparison of their features and efficiency with the hardware accelerated solution. |
