Atlae'hllle'lll.\ FY05 HOMELAND SECURITY GRANT PROGRAM activities outside their core responsibilities. The OJP Office of the Comptroller does not distinguish between Overtime and Overtime as Backfill - they are both viewed as overtime regardless of whether the individual has performed more hours in their normally assigned place of duty or if the overtime accrued as a result of being re- assigned to a different place of duty. Overtime and backfill do not result in an increase of full-time employees (FTEs). Hiring. Hiring new personnel to undertake allowable ODP program activities. This may also include expenses incurred where new personnel are hired to fulfill functions and duties as a result of other existing personnel being reassigned full-time to perform ODP- approved activities. In either case, this will result in an increase of FTEs, but can not result in an increase in the number of FTE positions performing normal operational duties. Information TechnoloQV Guidance Extensible Markup Language (XML) Requirements. XML is a computer programming language designed to transmit both data and the meaning of the data. The XML specification defines a standard way to add markup language to documents, identifying the embedded structures in a consistent way. By applying a consistent identification structure, data can be shared between different systems, up and down the levels of agencies, across the nation, and around the world, with the ease of using the Internet. XML lays the technological foundation that supports interoperability and the exchange of information to support DHS efforts in the prevention, preparedness, and response to threats or acts of terrorism. To support homeland security, public safety, and justice information sharing, ODP requires all grantees to use the Global Justice Data Model specifications and guidelines regarding the use of XML for all HSGP awards. The grantee shall make available without restriction all schemas (extensions, constraint, proxy) generated as a result of this grant, as specified in the guidelines. The Global Justice XML Data Model (GJXDM) is intended to be a data reference model for the exchange of information within the homeland security, justice, and public safety communities. GJXDM is a product of the Global Justice Information Sharing Initiative's (Global) Infrastructure and Standards Working Group (GISWG). It was developed by the GISWG's XML Structure Task Force (XSTF). The Global Justice Data Model specifications and guidelines include the use of XML to support the exchange of information within the homeland security, public safety, and justice communities. Most major software vendors fully support the general XML standard, and major database vendors and their database applications provide software development "tools" to assist homeland security technical staff to develop and use XML more efficiently and productively within agency applications. The general XML standard is designed to be independent of vendor, operating system, source application, destination application, storage medium (database), and/or transport protocol. Additionally, the use of XML allows homeland security personnel to share vital information which no longer entails purchasing new systems or compromising one's DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY I OFFICE FOR DOMESTIC PREPAREDNESS 40 111:".
