XML is widely used in various applications as the standard for representing and exchanging data on the Web. XML Schema is the standard schema for XML and an XML document generated based on the XML Schema is called 'Valid XML document'. The XML Schema validity should be guaranteed after the XML document is updated. In this paper, we design an efficient method that verifies XML Schema validity before update, and so eliminates unnecessary validations. Also, we propose validation algorithms for each update. In addition, we propose the mapping between XML data and XML Schema and a storage method for XML Schema in order to efficiently extract the schema information for the validation. Finally, we compare the performance of the validation according to the storage methods.

The XML is emerging as standard language for data exchange on the Web. Therefore a demand of XML Schema(W3C MLL Schema Spec.) that verifies XML document becomes increasing. However, XML Schema has a weak point for design because of its complication despiteof various data and abundant expressiveness. This paper shows a simple way of design for XML Schema using a fundamental means for database design, the Entity-Relationship model. The conversion from the Entity-Relationship model to XML Schema can not be directly on account of discordance between the two models. So we present some algorithms to generate XML Schema from the Entity-Relationship model. The algorithms produce XML Schema codes using a hierarchical view representation. An important objective of this automatic generation is to preserve XML Schema's characteristics such as reusability, global and local ability, ability of expansion and various type changes.

According to development of Web, an amount of XML documents has been increasing. So, many researches are proceeding to verify XML data coming from clients and to store or query efficiently database. In order to verify, store and query, DTD or XML Schema of XML documents is necessary. However, Schemaless XML documents couldn't be operated since they do not have either DTD or in Schema. In this paper, we extract XML schema in order to verify XML data and store or query efficiently database from either well-formed XML or XML Schemaless documents. XML Schema extracting technique which is proposed in this paper extract Schema graph using simulation and dataguide that is a extracting technique for semistructured characteristics of XML data. Also, we propose extracting technique for XML Schema using pattern tables that are considerated with Schema graph and reusability.

XML has the characteristics of self-describing and uses DTD or XML schema in order to constraint its structure. Even though the XML schema is only at the stage of recommendation yet, it will be prevalently used because DTD is not itself XML and has the limitation on the expression power. The structure defined by the XML schema as well as the data of the XML documents can vary due to complex reasons. Those reasons are errors in the XML schema design, new requirements due to new applications, etc. Thus, we propose XML schema evolution operators that are extracted from the analysis of the XML schema updates. These schema evolution operators enable the XML schema updates that would have been impossible without supporting tools if there are a large number of XML documents complying the U schema. In addition, these operators includes the function of automatically finding the update place in the XML documents which are registered to the XSE system, and maintaining the XML documents valid to the XML schema rather than merely well-formed. This paper is the first attempt to update XML schemas of the XML documents and provides the comprehensive set of schema updating operations. Our work is necessary for the XML application development and maintenance in that it helps to update the structure of the XML documents as well as the data in the easy and precise manner.

As more and more documents are published in XML, generating relational schemas to store XML documents in a relational database is also getting important. This paper describes a technique as well as its implementation to produce a relational schema from the XML Schema, a standard recently recommended by W3C. The DTD-based inlining technique cannot be applied to the XML Schema, because the XML Schema has many new features, which don't exist in the DTD. Various built-in data types, inheritance, and polymorphism, for example, strengthen the XML Schema, but make the generation of a relational schema from an XML Schema more difficult. We propose an XML Schema Inlining Technique, based on the previous work. The technique first maps various data types in the XML Schema to those of the relational database. After that, it construct the schema graph and the type graph from types and elements defined in the XML Schema. The relational schema is generated while traversing the type graphs. Besides, we describe techniques for handling xsi：type, used for the polymorphism, and the anon#moos type. We also propose a couple of heuristic methods for enhancing the performance of the system. Finally, we conducted experiments to show that our technique is better than the binary table approach.

XML은 인터넷 상에서의 표준 데이터 형식으로 XML 데이터에 대한 구조적 제약 조건들은 DTD나 XML Schema에 정의한다. XML Schema에 유효한 XML 문서는 XML Schema에 정의된 모든 구조적 제약 조건들을 만족해야 하며, 갱신이 발생한 후에도 대응되는 XML Schema에 대해 유효함이 보장되어야 한다. 본 연구는 DBMS에 저장되어 있는 XML Schema에 대해 유효한 XML 데이터를 갱신 할 때 필요한 효율적인 유효 검증 기법을 제안한다. 이 유효 검증 기법에서는 유효 검증 범위를 갱신과 관련된 영역에 한정시키고 갱신 이전에 유효 검증을 수행하여 유효 여부를 판단한다. 또한 본 연구에서는 유효 검증을 위한 유효 검증 제약 조건들과 XML Schema문서의 특성을 분석하여 유효 검증 시 필요한 스키마 정보만을 효율적으로 추출할 수 있는 XML Schema 저장 방법 및 그에 따른 스키마 정보 추출 방법을 제안하고 실험을 통해 그 성능을 보인다.

XML schema is widely used as an effective tool for organizing and validating XML data. Although W3C released XQuery and XQuery Update Facility as the standard methods for searching and updating XML data, there is no consideration about providing facilities for updating XML schema itself until now. So users can only update an XML schema file directly by using editors. However, the direct update has several problems: It cannot prevent user's illegal update; it is hard to apply to the XML schemas stored in databases, needs much time to analyze schema, and is likely to make syntactic errors. In this paper, we propose an XML schema update facility, which enables creation, deletion and modification of XML schema by using commands.

The growing use of XML markup language has made amount of heterogeneous. XML documents are widely available in the Web. As the number of applications that utilize heterogeneous XML documents grow, the importance of XML document extraction increases greatly. In this paper, we propose a XML schema conversion technique that converts reusable XML schema from XML documents. We convert the schema graph and we use the reusability pattern list. The converted XML schema is evaluated in terms of cohesion, coupling, and reusability. The converted XML schema could be used to construct databases for various fields where XML is used as an intermediation of data exchange.
