Maintaining XPath Views in Loosely Coupled Systems

Summary: Maintains materialized XPath views without tight coupling, using only view definitions, updates, and current results exposed by standard XPath interfaces. XPath intersection and containment tests detect irrelevant or self-maintainable updates, reducing costly full recomputations. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
