Abstract
Method for performing information-preserving DTD schema embeddings between a source schema when matching a source schema and a target schema. The preservation is realized by a matching process between the two schemas that finds a first string marking of the target schema, evaluates a legality of the first string marking, determines an estimated minimal cost of the first string marking and subsequently adjusts the estimated minimal cost based upon one to one mapping of source schema and target schema subcomponents.
