Schema Languages
Research Description:
Throughout the years, we have gathered a particular expertise in schema languages for tree structured, graph structured, or grid structured data. Our emphasis is on understanding the "bare bones" principles of the languages in question.
Selected topics:
- XML Schema, Relax NG (and BonXai)
