Integrating XML Schema Language with Databases for B2B Collaborations

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNISA,volume 3842))

Abstract

In this paper, we propose a series of rules for transforming XML Schema language into standard database schema, specifically based on ODMG 3.0 specifications. Our rules have the following characteristics: First, the rules use XML Schema as a document structure description language because the XML Schema has much stronger capabilities in exchanging data than the DTD has. Second, the rules support both structured and unstructured requests for XML documents, since the types of XML documents can be varied according to the level of integration among enterprises. We expect the rules will be an enabler technology for integrating distributed applications, in which the storage and retrieval of transmitted XML documents are mission-critical.
