Abstract
XML database schema integration has lately received increasing attention. It helps to obtain unified representation of all participating databases of an organization, facilitating their information access and utilization. The presented XML database schema integration framework follows one short strategy [3]. The system is capable of integrating simultaneously n schemas. Possible conflicts between XML schemas are detected and their resolutions proposed. A normal form of XML schema is also given; it provides a unique declaration of an XML schema and avoids ambiguous schema representation. XML Declarative Description (XDD) [16] is used as the framework’s underlying model.
