Guidelines
An important aspect of efficient data processing is knowledge of integrity constraints that are covered in the described reality. However, similarly to the problem of schemas which are often omitted and rather assumed implicitly, also integrity constraints are not explicitly expressed in most applications, even though there exist several suitable languages and tools, such as general OCL, Incox for XML data etc.
The aim of this work is a research on various aspects of the problem of (semi)automatic detection of various integrity constraints covered in the given set of data. In particular, it will focus on XML data. Firstly, it is necessary to analyze existing solutions and to discuss their advantages and disadvantages. The core of the work is a proposal and implementation of own approach facing selected disadvantages of the existing ones. The work will include suitable experimental results.
