Concept of integrated environment for network design

This work examines CANDy and NDML concepts. CANDy, Computer Aided Network Design utility is a concept for an efficient XML-based integrated network design environment. Its integrating components are NDML (Network Design Markup Language), an XML-based problem-oriented language developed for representation of information components related to network projecting within documents. Its design supports interoperability with the XML family of tools and protocols. It provides a set of components to meet the needs of network design
