This article describes how to implement efficient memory resident path indexes for semi-structured data. Two techniques are introduced, and they are shown to be significantly fas...
This demonstration paper presents a probabilistic XML data merging tool, that represents the outcome of semi-structured document integration as a probabilistic tree. The system is...
