This sounds less like an XML parsing problem and more like an app architecture problem.

That XML basically describes some data and said data would typically be represented by objects in your application. You could go with a CoreData based solution whereby you parse the XML into a local CoreData store (in memory or on disk, matters not) and then display the managed objects as per usual.

Or, assuming that is representative of a typical set of data, you could parse it into your own hand rolled objects (or, even, dictionaries and arrays), then display from there.

There are dozens of questions about parsing XML on SO (and via Google).

The second part of your question hasn’t been addressed. Basically, you need to properly layer your app into the model-view-controller pattern. Your model layer would parse the XML and create an object graph that represents the data. Each controller would have a reference to that single model.

This will work fine as long as your app is read only. If the various controllers are expected to also edit the object graph, then it’ll need to be a bit more complex in that you’ll have to deal with change propagation (this is where CoreData shines; it makes change management, propagation, validation, and undo relatively straightforward).
