Abstract
As the number of schema repositories grows rapidly and several webbased platforms exist to support publishing schemas, schema reuse becomes a new trend. Schema reuse is a methodology that allows users to create new schemas by copying and adapting existing ones. This methodology supports to reduce not only the effort of designing new schemas but also the heterogeneity between them. One of the biggest barriers of schema reuse is about privacy concerns that discourage schema owners from contributing their schemas. Addressing this problem, we develop a framework that enables privacy-preserving schema reuse. Our framework supports the contributors to define their own protection policies in the form of privacy constraints. Instead of showing original schemas, the framework returns an anonymized schema with maximal utility while satisfying these privacy constraints. To validate our approach, we empirically show the efficiency of different heuristics, the correctness of the proposed utility function, the computation time, as well as the trade-off between utility and privacy
