Abstract:
A database management system (DBMS) is based on a data model whose concepts are used to express a database schema. Each data model has a specific set of integrity constraint types. There are integrity constraint types, such as key constraint, unique constraint and foreign key constraint that are supported by most DBMSs. Other, more complex constraint types are difficult to express and enforce and are mostly completely disregarded by actual DBMSs. The users have to manage those using custom procedures or triggers. eXtended Markup Language (XML) has become the universal format for representing and exchanging data. Very often XML data are generated from relational databases and exported to a target application or another database. In this context, integrity constraints play the essential role in preserving the original semantics of data. Integrity constraints have been extensively studied in the relational data model. Mechanisms provided by XML schema languages rely on a simple form of constraints that is sufficient neither for expressing semantic constraints commonly found in databases nor for expressing more complex constraints induced by the business rules of the system under study. In this paper we present a classification of constraint types in relational data model, discuss possible declarative mechanisms for their specification and enforcement in the XML data model, and illustrate our approach to the definition and enforcement of complex constraint types in the XML data model on the example of extended tuple constraint type.

Abstract:
In this paper, we present two types of XML semantic constraints, namely the XML Template Functional Dependencies (XTFDs) and the XML Template Multivalued Dependencies (XTMVDs), which are both defined over the finite XML files that have no mixed contents. Essentially they specify that if a pattern of nodes appears in a finite XML file that has no mixed contents, then another pattern of nodes must also appear. To implement these semantic constraints, we demonstrate an algorithm that transforms an XTFD or an XTMVD to an XQuery program such that the program returns a non-empty set of counter examples from such an XML file If [Formula: see text] if and only if [Formula: see text] does not satisfy the constraint.

Abstract:
With XML adopted as the technology trend on the Internet, and with investment in the current relational database systems, companies must convert their relational data into XML documents for data transmission on the Internet. In the process, to preserve the users' relational data requirements of data constraints into the converted XML documents, we must define a meaningful root element for each XML document. The construction of an XML document is based on the root element and its relevant elements. The root element can be selected from a relational entity table in the existing relational database, which depends on the requirements to present the business behind. The relevant elements are mapped from the related entities, based on the navigability of the chosen entity. The derived root and relevant elements can form a Data Type Definition Graph (DTD-graph) of an XML conceptual schema diagram which can be mapped into a Data Type Definition (DTD) of an XML schema. The result is a translated XML schema with semantic constraints transferred from a relational conceptual schema of an Extended Entity Relationship (EER) model. The data conversion from relational data to the XML documents can be done after the schema translation. The relational data are loaded into XML documents according to the translated DTD.

Abstract:
XML is widely used nearly everywhere in modern information technology. However, traditional XML semantic constraints expression and validation is still an open issue since grammar-based or rule-based schema languages have built-in limitations in some syntax constraints expression, and the combined ones with more than two languages to check a XML putting a considerable burden on users. A domain-oriented XML expression and validation approach is proposed, which takes high level business concepts to capture the advanced XML constraints in a compact and easy understand way. Some implementation techniques and advantages are also demonstrated to show the lightweight and pragmatic of this approach.

Abstract:
Multiple interdependent issues negotiations have been widely studied since most real-world negotiation involves multiple interdependent issues. Our work focuses on negotiation with multiple interdependent issues in which agent utility functions are nonlinear. In the field of multiple issue negotiations, there are no established common testbeds for evaluating protocols. In this paper, we propose a common testbed creating tool based on XML that mainly covers the utility functions based on cube-constraints and cone-constraints. First, we propose a testbed generating tool that inputs configuration data and outputs XML formatted files that represent agent utility spaces. The current tool can produce four types of utility spaces: Random, A Single Hill, Two-Hills, and SeveralHills. These types are observed in real negotiation settings. Also we define the agent’s utility space information based on XML formats. By defining the testbed data as XMLs, users can easily read the files and change the data structure.

Data constraints are the basis of the database normalization, the introduction of XML documents with incomplete information, data constraints need to be re-defined. The precise definition of the tree inferior strong multi-valued dependency for XML documents(XTISMVD) was proposed, which was based on the tree structure and subtree information equivalent. Judging condition of XTISMVD was studied. By instance this paper shows that the existence of XTISMVD produces redundancies and update anomalies, moving or adding nodes for XML Schema can reduce redundancies.

Twig pattern is one of the core components of XQuery. Twig usually includes redundancy nodes which can be optimized. Schema feature is used to judge whether the node of Twig pattern is redundancy. In this paper, we propose sufficient Schema constraints and specific rules. In this paper, we have designed more determination conditions to optimize, then we will get the most efficient results. By a large number of test case, we finally get the practical limits of minimization.

Abstract:
For research institutes, data libraries, and data archives, validating RDF data according to predefined constraints is a much sought-after feature, particularly as this is taken for granted in the XML world. Based on our work in two international working groups on RDF validation and jointly identified requirements to formulate constraints and validate RDF data, we have published 81 types of constraints that are required by various stakeholders for data applications. In this paper, we evaluate the usability of identified constraint types for assessing RDF data quality by (1) collecting and classifying 115 constraints on vocabularies commonly used in the social, behavioral, and economic sciences, either from the vocabularies themselves or from domain experts, and (2) validating 15,694 data sets (4.26 billion triples) of research data against these constraints. We classify each constraint according to (1) the severity of occurring violations and (2) based on which types of constraint languages are able to express its constraint type. Based on the large-scale evaluation, we formulate several findings to direct the further development of constraint languages.

The Extensible Markup Language is susceptible to security breaches because it does not incorporate methods to protect the information it encodes. This work focuses on the development of a formal language that can provide role-based access control to information stored in XML formatted documents. This language has the capacity to reason whether access to an XML document should be allowed. The language, Axml(T), allows for the specification of authorisations on XML documents and distinguishes itself from other research with the inclusion of temporal interval reasoning and the XPath query language.

Abstract:
This paper outlines a methodology for designing information systems based on XML. The methodology uses XML DTDs to define the design standards, and the structure and constraints of the design specifications. The result of the design process is a set of valid XML documents that are the specifications of transaction programs and applications of the information system. At the start of a design process, the methodology uses a CASE tool to map user requirements into initial XML specifications. Final design specifications are produced by a sequence of XSL transformations of the initial XML specifications. A key feature of the methodology is that it produces a platform independent design of an information system. To enable an early feedback from users, the methodology uses further XSL transformations that produce an executable prototype of the information system in the Java programming environment.

Abstract:
Extensible Markup Language (XML) has been used for data-transport and data-transformation while the business sector continues to store critical business data in relational databases. Extracting relational data and formatting it into XML documents, and then converting XML documents back to relational structures, becomes a major daily activity. It is important to have an efficient methodology to handle this conversion between XML documents and relational data. This paper aims to perform data conversion from XML documents into relational databases. It proposes a prototype and algorithms for this conversion process. The pre-process is schema translation using an XML schema definition. The proposed approach is based on the needs of an Order Information System to suggest a methodology to gain the benefits provided by XML technology and relational database management systems. The methodology is a stepwise procedure using XML schema definition and Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformations (XSLT) to ensure that the data constraints are not scarified after data conversion. The implementation of the data conversion is performed by decomposing the XML document of a hierarchical tree model into normalized relations interrelated with their artifact primary keys and foreign keys. The transformation process is performed by XSLT. This paper will also demonstrate the entire conversion process through a detailed case study.

Abstract:
For a company with many databases in different data models, it is necessary to consolidate them into one interchangeable data model and present data in more than one data model concurrently to different users or individual users who need to access the data in more than one data model. The benefit is to let the user stick to his/her own data model to access database in another data model. This paper presents a semantic metadata to preserve database constraints for data materialization to support the user's view of database on an ad hoc basis. The semantic metadata can store the captured semantics of a relational or an XML-enabled database into classes. The stored constraints and data can be materialized into a target database upon user request. The user is allowed to perform data materialization many times alternatively. The process can provide a relational as well as an XML view to the users simultaneously. This concurrent data materialization function can be applied into data warehouse to consolidate heterogeneous database into a fact table in a data model of user's choice. Furthermore, a user can obtain either a relational view or an XML view of the same dataset of an XML-enabled database interchangeably.

The main idea of the algorithm is a dynamic programming strategy to find all the matching subtrees within a TPQ. A matching subtree implies a redundancy and should be removed in such a way that the semantics of the original TPQ is not damaged. Our algorithm consists of two parts: one for subtree recognization and the other for subtree deletion. Both of them needs only O(<I>n</I>2) time, where <I>n</I> is the number of nodes in a TPQ.

Abstract:
XML document is now widely used for modelling and storing structured documents. The structure is very rich and carries important information about contents and their relationships, for example, e-Commerce. XML data-centric collections require query terms allowing users to specify constraints on the document structure; mapping structure queries and assigning the weight are significant for the set of possibly relevant documents with respect to structural conditions. In this paper, we present an extension to the MEXIR search system that supports the combination of structural and content queries in the form of content-and-structure queries, which we call the Exponentiation function. It has been shown the structural information improve the effectiveness of the search system up to 52.60% over the baseline BM25 at MAP.

Abstract:
Summary Objectives: The goal of this article is to examine whether W3C XML Schema provides a practicable solution for the semantic validation of standard-based electronic health record (EHR) documents. With semantic validation we mean that the EHR documents are checked for conformance with the underlying archetypes and reference model. Methods: We describe an approach that allows XML Schemas to be derived from archetypes based on a specific naming convention. The archetype constraints are augmented with additional components of the reference model within the XML Schema representation. A copy of the EHR document that is transformed according to the before-mentioned naming convention is used for the actual validation against the XML Schema. Results: We tested our approach by semantically validating EHR documents conformant to three different ISO/EN 13606 archetypes respective to three sections of the CDA implementation guide “Continuity of Care Document (CCD)” and an implementation guide for diabetes therapy data. We further developed a tool to automate the different steps of our semantic validation approach. Conclusions: For two particular kinds of archetype prescriptions, individual transformations are required for the corresponding EHR documents. Otherwise, a fully generic validation is possible. In general, we consider W3C XML Schema as a practicable solution for the semantic validation of standard-based EHR documents.

Abstract:
In this paper, we provide a polynomial-time tree pattern query minimization algorithm whose efficiency stems from two key observations: (i) Inherent redundant “components” usually exist inside the rudimentary query provided by the user. (ii) Irredundant nodes may become redundant when constraints such as co-occurrence and required child/descendant are given. We show the result that the algorithm obtained by first augmenting the input tree pattern using the constraints, and then applying minimization, always finds the unique minimal equivalent to the original query. We complement our analytical results with an experimental study that shows the effectiveness of our tree pattern minimization techniques.

Abstract:
The subject of the research is the possibility of using XPath-like micro-languages of programming in the generation systems of programs of the PGEN ++ class for the selection and completion of XML-models describing the plan for solving the original problem, according to which the solver program is generated. It is supposed to build such models according to the description of the problem in natural language, thus, we are talking about elements of artificial intelligence technologies. XPath-like language works in the layer of regular-logical expressions (highlighting elements of the primary XML document), performing primary processing of the data obtained in the layer of grammatical parsing of the source text. In addition, XPath-like elements are used to render the final XML models. The standard natural language parsing libraries are used. Non-standard XPath query language extensions are used. For the first time, the idea of expanding the XPath query language to the level of an algorithmic language by introducing the minimum required number of syntactic elements is proposed. It is also proposed to use syntactic elements with an XPath-like structure as both generating and controlling weak constraints of the process of direct inference of final semantic XML models.

Abstract:
Consistency maintenance is a key problem in collaborative product design. Firstly, based on product design theory, the semantics relationships described by XML among components in collaborative product design system are made. Secondly, the associated components are determined through backward and forward semantics reasoning. Finally, the data is updated by constraints solving, and the consistency maintenance is achieved.

Abstract:
In variant design, the proliferation of bills of materials makes it difficult for designers to find previous designs that would aid in completing a new design task. This research presents a novel, data mining approach to forming generic bills of materials (GBOMs), entities that represent the different variants in a product family and facilitate the search for similar designs and configuration of new variants. The technical difficulties include: (i) developing families or categories for products, assemblies, and component parts; (ii) generalizing purchased parts and quantifying their similarity; (iii) performing tree union; and (iv) establishing design constraints. These challenges are met through data mining methods such as text and tree mining, a new tree union procedure, and embodying the GBOM and design constraints in constrained XML. The paper concludes with a case study, using data from a manufacturer of nurse call devices, and identifies a new research direction for data mining motivated by the domains of engineering design and information.

Abstract:
Large industrial interoperability projects use syntax-based Enterprise Application Integration standards, such as XML Schema, to accomplish interoperable data exchange among enterprise applications. In this paper, we describe an approach to assess the potential impact of Semantic Web technologies on these standards and on testability of integration results when using these standards. The experimental approach includes an automated translation of an XML Schema-based representation of business document content models into an OWL-based ontology. Based on this ontology, we use the Semantic Web representation and reasoning mechanisms to validate ontological constructs and constraints in support of data exchange. We demonstrate novel model-based integration capabilities that go beyond the existing syntax-based approaches. These new capabilities are relevant when managing multiple enterprise ontologies derived from a common ontology.
