SOAP Message Transmission Optimization Mechanism
W3C XML Protocol Working Group, Initial Working Draft

This working draft describes an abstract feature for optimizing the
transmission and/or wire format of a SOAP message by selectively encoding
portions of the message, while still presenting an XML Infoset to the
SOAP application. Unlike SOAP itself, which is defined in terms of XML
Infosets, this feature models message envelopes using the XQuery 1.0 and
XPath 2.0 Data Model, which is a typed superset of the Infoset. This
feature uses type information only for optimization purposes; it does
not provide for reconstruction of type information at receivers, except
as necessary to support optimization. Nonetheless, use of the Data Model
in this specification facilitates optimized transmission of query results
through SOAP, and should provide a useful foundation if, for example,
digital signature canonicalizations were to be developed for Data Model
instances. The document also describes an Optimized MIME Multipart
Serialization of SOAP Messages implementing the Abstract Transmission
Optimization Feature in a binding independent way. This implementation
relies on the W3C "XML-binary Optimized Packaging" format.
