Structural matching and discovery in documents such as SGML and HTML is important for data warehousing [6], version management [7, 11], hypertext authoring, digital libraries [4] and Internet databases. As an example, a user of the World Wide Web may be interested in knowing changes in an HTML document [2, 5, 10]. Such changes can be detected by comparing the old and new version of the document (referred to as structural matching of documents).
