Chameleon: an Extensible and Customizable Tool for Web Data Translation

Summary: Chameleon uses a metamodel-driven framework to define Web data formats and compose translations from basic metaconstructs. It supports semistructured data, XML schemas, and traditional databases, enabling model definition, validation, and model-to-model translations. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
