These days I'm reading about annotated XML as it is necessary for our final year project.When I started it, I didn't had any idea about what it means.So I first searched about the meaning of annotation.
When we read a text book or some article, we make our own notes about its content. In general annotation means something like that.
There are many technologies that use annotation concept. following is a summary of what I found on internet regarding annotation.
Java Annotations:
is a which feature shifted the responsibility for writing the boilerplate code from the programmer to the compiler.
PDF Annotation:
Adobe Acrobat is one example of proprietary software that allows the user to annotate, highlight, add notes to already created PDF files.
Web Annotation:
It can be considered as an annotation system, a user can add, modify or remove information from a Web resource without modifying the resource itself.
