Schema Evolution publication categorizer

The recent success of distributed and dynamic infrastructures for knowledge sharing has raised the need for semiautomatic/automatic ontology evolution strategies. Ontology evolution is generally defined as the timely adaptation of an ontology to changing requirements and the consistent propagation of changes to dependent artifacts. In this article, we present an ontology evolution approach in the context of multimedia interpretation.

In this paper we investigate the problem of XML Schema evolution.
We first discuss the different kinds of changes that may be needed
on an XML Schema. Then, we investigate how to minimize document
revalidation, that is, detecting the document parts potentially
invalidated by the schema changes that should be revalidated.
