摘要:
A method and system are provided in which data may be multityped using a schematized data model. A standardized schema in a schematized data model includes at least one base construct for representing data that is common across multiple types of an object that the model represents. An extension to the standardized schema is at least one extension construct for representing data that is specific to a single type of the multiple types of the object. Instances of the extension construct are directly or indirectly associated with exactly one instance of the base construct without impacting the behavior and functionality of the base construct. Multiple extensions may be used to represent data that is specific to each of the corresponding multiple types of the object.
摘要:
The present invention extends to methods, systems, computer program products, and data structures for efficiently storing and accessing electronic messages representing fax transmissions. The messages are extended according to a fax schema that defines formats for adding fax protocol specific and/or or fax application specific data fields to an electronic message. According to the fax schema, the messages have relationships with other data fields stored using other schemas that define the accounting services, message content, and message participants associated with the fax transmission. The fax schema promotes efficient storage and access of electronic messages representing fax transmissions, while also facilitating integrating messages received by fax transmission with other types of existing message protocols and message applications.
