JSON: Data model, Query languages and Schema specification
Summary: Formalizes JSON as a tree-like data model and defines a lightweight navigational query language matching object/array and key/value semantics. Defines a logic for the JSON Schema proposal and studies complexity of core tasks (evaluation, satisfiability/containment). (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
