  • Using XML-based multicasting to improve web service scalability 
    Tekli, Joe; Damiani, Ernesto; Chbeir, Richard (2012)
    Web services’ (WS) emphasis on open standards provides substantial benefits over previous application integration techniques. A major WS feature is SOAP, a simple, robust and extensible XML-based protocol for the exchange ...
  • Minimizing user effort in XML grammar matching 
    Tekli, Joe; Chbeir, Richard (2012-05-07)
    XML grammar matching has found considerable interest recently, due to the growing number of heterogeneous XML documents on the Web, and the need to integrate, search and retrieve XML documents originated from different ...
  • A novel XML document structure comparison framework based-on sub-tree commonalities and label semantics 
    Tekli, Joe; Chbeir, Richard (2011-11-15)
    XML similarity evaluation has become a central issue in the database and information communities, its applications ranging over document clustering, version control, data integration and ranked retrieval. Various algorithms ...
