Abstract
Techniques for managing XML data associated with multiple execution units ensure that execution units are able to use XML data coming from other execution units. Such techniques are applicable when, but for the technique, an XML type value is produced in a particular form by one execution unit and is supposed to be consumed by another execution unit that is unable to process data in the particular form, and involves detecting that the foregoing situation exists and annotating information sent to an XML producer execution unit to cause the XML type value to be transformed into a canonical form that can be shared by all relevant execution units.
