+Increased reliance on optimistic data replication has led to
+burgeoning interest in tools and frameworks for synchronizing
+disconnected updates to replicated data. To better understand the
+issues underlying the design of generic and heterogeneous synchronizers,
+we have implemented an experimental framework, called Harmony, that
+can be used to build synchronizers for tree-structured data stored
+in a variety of concrete formats, in particular XML.
