Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed that facilitate formally describing structured documents and complex validation rules associated therewith using value-added XSD schemas (VAXs). In accordance with aspects of the invention, structured documents can be translated, parsed, validated, and acknowledged in a single pass via utilization of XSD schema representations that capture complex data and business rules related to validation as a translation specification to convert delimited flat-file and/or structured documents to an XML format while providing ambiguity resolution and acknowledgements.
