A Framework for Generic Integration of XML Data Sources

Wolfgang May

Abstract:

We consider the situation where several XML sources have to be integrated which are assumed to contain complementary, overlapping contents. These overlappings have to be detected, and then appropriate operations have to be applied to the internal database to generate a result view. The approach uses the XPathLog language for formulating queries and updates of an XML database.
