Paper Title:
SPath: A Path Language for XML Schema
Authors:
Abstract:
XML is increasingly being used as a typed data format, and therefore it becomes more important to gain access to the type system, very often this is an XML Schema. The XML Schema Path Language (SPath) presented in this paper provides access to XML Schema components by extending the well-known XPath language to also include the domain of XML Schemas. Using SPath, XML developers gain access to XML Schemas and thus can more easily develop software which is type- or schema-aware, and thus more robust.
