Typechecking for XML transformers
2003
Journal of computer and system sciences (Print)
We study the typechecking problem for XML (eXtensible Markup Language) transformers: given an XML transformation program and a DTD for the input XML documents, check whether every result of the program conforms to a specified output DTD. We model XML transformers using a novel device called a k-pebble transducer, that can express most queries without data-value joins in XML-QL, XSLT, and other XML query languages. Types are modeled by regular tree languages, a robust extension of DTDs. The main
