Semantic Adaptation of Schema Mappings when Schemas Evolve

Summary: Semantic adaptation of schema mappings under evolution via mapping composition, preserving semantics of both original and evolved mappings. Implements a practical adaptation system with pruning, outperforming incremental approaches on nested-relational second-order dependencies within a model-management framework.
