Abstract
Semi-structured data is data that presents some regularity (i.e. it is not an image or plain text), but perhaps not as much as some relational data or some ODMG data (the standard for object databases). Such data is becoming increasingly important and, with XML, should become the standard for publishing data on the World Wide Web. With XML, the Web is turning into a worldwide heterogeneous distributed database. In this paper, we briefly discuss typing and languages for semi-structured data and some new issues arising from the context of data management on the Web.
