  3. Sequence
<name>
  <firstName>A</firstName>
  <middleName>B</middleName>
  <lastName>C</lastName>
</name>

To require that the child elements occur in that order, we would have to use the sequence compositor:

<xsd:element name="name">
  <xsd:complexType>
   <xsd:sequence>
    <xsd:element name="firstName" type="xsd:string"/>
    <xsd:element name="middleName" type="xsd:string"/>
    <xsd:element name="lastName" type="xsd:string"/>
   </xsd:sequence>
  </xsd:complexType>
</xsd:element>
