Abstract

Methods, apparatus and systems to keep a desired element properly addressed in a structured document in which particular elements are addressed, even if the structured document is modified. In an example embodiment, the invention comprises a difference computation unit for computing a difference between structured documents, and an XPath update unit for generating addressing information from addressing information that addresses a part of a particular structured document based on information on the difference computed by the difference computation unit, the generated addressing information addressing a corresponding part of the other structured document.
