Abstract

Due to the proliferation of information exchange via Internet, users suffer from information overload. For this reason, RSS is now widely adopted to deliver latest information to users without human intervention. It is also used to deliver customized data using extension modules. However an inter-operability issue among RSS applications using different extension modules has been raised because the processing of extension module has to be performed in the source code level of RSS applications. To resolve this interoperability issue, we propose a new RSS framework, UniRSS, which can support extension modules via a unified interface. UniRSS suggests an architecture composed of a pair of describing schema and a delegation code model to support any kind of extension modules in the code level. It supports both RSS 1.0 and RSS 2.0, and it also provides intelligent syndication using reasoning code insertion for RSS 1.0.
