Efficient type annontation of XML schema-validated XML documents without schema validation

摘要

Type annotation record information storage for annotated automaton encoding for high-performance XML schema validation is optimized in a space efficient aspect. Subsequent to type annotation record information organization, type annotation records are used for type annotation of validated XML documents, either by implementing annotation records and type annotation part of an algorithm only, or by skipping one or more validation steps in a full validation implementation. Given a schema context, a type annotation may be performed for a validated XML fragment as opposed to an entire document. In addition, default features such as attribute and type are supported.
