There is a lot of research going on with in the area of wrapper 
generation. Some approaches prefer creating java objects, others 
directly map to XML. Implementations include:

Have a look at XML query languages, they are about that (among other

A good paper to start with is from David Maier, look at sections 2.9 
and 2.10 to see his Vision of data communication via XML on the web.

And of course there is Microsoft's vision, see

Hope that helps.
