The majority of these files can be found on the individual specification pages. They are compiled here for your convenience.
IMS uses XML-Schemas as the primary control documents for the IMS specifications' XML bindings. Note that Service specifications (ie. Enterprise Services) wsdl and schema files are located under Services. Data Model only specifications schemas are located under Schemas.
