Merging of XML Documents

How to deal with the heterogeneous structures of XML documents, identify XML data instances, solve conflicts, and effectively merge XML documents to obtain complete information is a challenge. In this paper, we define a merging operation over XML documents that can merge two XML documents with different structures. It is similar to a full outer join in relational algebra. We design an algorithm for this operation. In addition, we propose a method for merging XML elements and handling typical conflicts. Finally, we present a merge template XML file that can support recursive processing and merging of XML elements.
