Abstract

In this paper, we propose a conceptual model for building schemata for XML documents. In particular, we define the conceptual model UXS (UML & XML Schema), which is based on UML and provides several graphical constructs to help the programmer to define complex XML schemata. The model is completed by the support of several translation approaches for building the XML Schema code, corresponding to the defined conceptual schema. A prototype has been developed, and allows the conceptual definition of XML schemata by using the introduced approach.
