Answering XML Queries over Heterogeneous Data Sources

Summary: Proposes an architecture for integrating heterogeneous data using a global XML schema with local-as-view mappings (local sources described as views over the global schema). Focuses on translating user queries against the XML global schema into SQL queries over the local data sources, enabling LA-view guided query plans over relational engines.
