Abstract
The eXtensible Markup Language (XML) (Bray et al. 2008) is currently one of the most popular meta-formats for data representation on the Web. To enable data exchange, it is crucial to restrict structure of the exchanged XML documents by a set of rules, so that each communicating party is able to understand them. This restriction is achieved via XML schemas.
