| The Fast Infoset standard draft (currently being developed as joint work by ISO/IEC JTC 1 and ITU-T) |
| specifies a binary format for XML infosets that is an efficient alternative to XML. An instance of this |
| binary format is called a fast infoset document. Fast infoset documents are analogous to XML documents. |
| Each has a physical form and an XML infoset. Fast infoset documents are, given the results presented, faster |
| to serialize and parse, and smaller in size, than the equivalent XML documents. Thus, fast infoset documents |
| may be used whenever the size and processing time of XML documents is an issue. |
| |
| The binary format is optimized to balance the needs of both document size and processing time. Fast infoset |
| documents are useful in a number of domains from bandwidth- and resource-constrained mobile devices to |
| high-bandwidth high-throughput systems. In general, smaller documents are possible at the expense of either |
| increased processing or loss of self-description and dependence on a schema. Faster processing is possible |
| at the expense of loss of self-description and dependence on a schema. For example, standard compression |
| (LZH) or XML-specific compression techniques (XMill) may be applied to XML documents to obtain smaller |
| document sizes, but this adds to the processing time, especially in the compression phase, and can affect |
| server-side performance. |
