Abstract
A profile matching system and associated method match the path expressions in a structured or semi-structured document, such as an XML document, to an indexed resource. The system, having assigned weighting values to the elements in the index, maps the document path expressions and attempts to match them to the index elements according to a predetermined schema. The system is comprised of an indexing module that maps the document and identifies its content attributes, and a matching module that matches the document content attributes to weighted elements of an index. The system defines the attribute or set of attributes in the schema that result in a match. The matching criteria are identified in a map specification file that specifies the specific qualification criteria. The indexing module uses the map specification information to produce efficient indices from XML document. The matching module uses a match specification language (MSL) and a match operator. Each rule in the MSL is a pair of path expressions: one for the source document and one for target document or index.
