XML version detection

The problem of version detection is critical in many important application scenarios, including software clone identification, Web page ranking, plagiarism detection, and peer-to-peer searching. A natural and commonly used approach to version detection relies on analyzing the similarity between files. Most of the techniques proposed so far rely on the use of hard thresholds for similarity measures. However, defining a threshold value is problematic for several reasons: in particular (i) the threshold value is not the same when considering different similarity functions, and (ii) it is not semantically meaningful for the user. To overcome this problem, our work proposes a version detection mechanism for XML documents based on Na
