Representing Changes in XML Documents using Dimensions
Manolis Gergatsoulis, Yannis Stavrakas
Abstract:
In this paper, we present a method for representing the history of
XML documents using Multidimensional XML (MXML). We demonstrate
how a set of basic change operations on XML documents can be
represented in MXML, and show that temporal XML snapshots can be
obtained from MXML representations of XML histories. We also
argue that our model is capable to represent changes not only in
an XML document but to the corresponding XML Schema document as
well.
