Abstract

Compression aims to reduce the size of data without loss of information. Compaction is a special kind of compression in which the output is in the same language as the input. Compaction of an XML data forest produces a smaller XML forest, without losing any data. This paper develops a formal framework for the compaction of XML data and presents two compaction techniques.
