XML summarization: A survey

eXtensible Markup Language (XML) is one of the standard data representation nowadays. It can be used in various applications as its flexibility and easy to use so the need to summarize XML document become increasingly an important topic to save time and cost. For these reasons, there are more interest for developing tools for summarizing XML Documents. This paper surveys different approaches for summarizing XML documents regarding to both its structure and content.
