Abstract

The growing use of XML markup language has made amount of heterogeneous. XML documents are widely available in the Web. As the number of applications that utilize heterogeneous XML documents grow, the importance of XML document extraction increases greatly. In this paper, we propose a XML schema conversion technique that converts reusable XML schema from XML documents. We convert the schema graph and we use the reusability pattern list. The converted XML schema is evaluated in terms of cohesion, coupling, and reusability. The converted XML schema could be used to construct databases for various fields where XML is used as an intermediation of data exchange.
