Schema Design for XML Repositories: Complexity and Tractability
Summary: Tightens complexity bounds for distributing a global XML schema into local schemas, showing that for DTDs and deterministic XML-Schema content models the existence of a perfect local typing is tractable. Also settles a formal-language open problem: DFA language primality is PSPACE-complete. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
