Description

Design and implement a parser and evaluator for Schema Component Designators [1]. A Schema component designator identifies XML Schema Component(s) defined in the W3C XML Schema Definition language using a path expression (similar to an XPath expression). This project invovles writing a parser to parse the SCD expression (automatic code generation tools like JavaCC can be used to generate the parser), and an evaluator to evaluate the expression (return the selected components from an XSModel).

Possible Mentors: Khaled Noaman, Sandy Gao, Michael Glavassevich
