Foundations of Schema Mapping Management

Summary: Defines a formal order comparing schema mappings by the amount of information they transfer, and derives related criteria and decision tools. Uses this machinery to study extract/merge, simplify inverse results, and characterize decidability of schema evolution. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
