Digital watermarking techniques have been successfully applied in multimedia data such as image, audio, video, etc. With the rapid development of Internet, the requirement of copyright and integrity protection over semi-structured data, such as XML documents and complex hypertext content, is becoming more and more urgent. However, it is more challenging to apply the effective watermarking schemes into semi-structured data, because watermark for semi-structured data must have the dual protection feature toward both structure and content. In general, most semi-structured data can be represented as tree. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a novel watermark scheme for tree-structured data based on the value lying both in the tree structure and in the node content, which gives a comprehensive protection for both node content and structure of tree. The experiments on the robustness of the solution against various forms of attacks are conducted. The results highlight correctness and efficiency of our solution. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2005.
