PRIMA: Archiving and Querying Historical Data with Evolving Schemas
Summary: Archives data under their original schema versions and rewrites queries to the relevant evolving schemas, enabling current-schema querying without archival quality loss. Demonstrates automatic schema-history documentation and metadata-history querying across Wikipedia/Ensembl histories. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
