摘要:
Techniques provided for allowing external access by other users to private information that is maintained on local storage of a computer and owned by an information owner. The private information is uploaded from the local storage to an externally accessible information source that is accessible by the other users. A request from a user to access the private information is received by the owner, who determines whether to allow access the private information. If so, the owner sends a private information sharing authorization to a collaboration orchestrator, which retrieves the private information from the external source and provides the private information to the user. The owner optionally requests to collaborate with the user before deciding whether to allow access to the private information. One or both of the identities of the owner and user can remain anonymous until agreeing on revealing identities. A system and program product is also provided.

A method and apparatus for generating a statistical tree representing an extensible markup language Schema (XSD) is disclosed. Components of the XSD are prioritized according to predefined rules. A root node representing said XSD is created. Pairs of child nodes are generated from the root node. Each pair comprises at least one genuine node, and each pair of generated child nodes is appended to a parent node which is a genuine node. The path to each of said child nodes from a respective parent genuine node is represented with a binary sequence. At least one genuine node is allocated to a corresponding component of said XSD, the allocation being based on the prioritization of the component. Methods, apparatus and computer program products for generating a statistical tree representing an extensible markup language Schema (XSD), for encoding an extensible markup language (XML) document utilizing a statistical tree representing an extensible markup language Schema (XSD), and for decoding an XML document represented by a binary encoded sequence also are disclosed.
