Example scenario

In the entire book the example scenario of the "Hochwaldklinik.xml" file can be found. It serves as a basis for the numerous explanations of the introduced constructs. As discourse area the administration of a hospital ("Hochwaldklinik") with all its institutions, employees and patients is (radically simplified) regarded.

The depiction on the XML data model results in two classes of data stocks – core data and dynamic data. Core data describe the hospital together with the associated institutions and employees. The biggest part of the dynamic data take up the patient data, whereby, in addition, the time tracking and the consumables are demonstrated.
