The evolution of query processing Update modelQuery model Non - transactional High update rate Data is too big and cannot be stored efficiently on disks. Non - Transactional Continuous Approximated Dynamic optimizations Limited Buffering Streaming The close relatives of streaming algorithms are the one-pass algorithms.

XML processing Dom approach –Build in-core representations –Process as needed by standard API –Disadvantages: Scalability – cannot process large documents Locality – multiple traversals Algorithm inefficiencies – API ’ s perform unnecessary traversals SAX approach –Use a streaming event base API for on the fly parsing of XML –Disadvantages: Programmability : low level event handling Lack of support for Xpath, (especially with parent/ ancestor axes) Process DOM tree (XPath,XQuery,..) Build DOM tree XML parser

Background Information Restricted XPath Set: –loc path: / step –predicate: [ ] –nodetest –axis specifier: ancestor, parent, child, descendant

Example document X (1,1) Root (0,0) Y (9,2) Y (2,2) Z (3,3) U (8,3) Z (10,3) V (4,4) V (5,4) W (6,4) W (7,5) W (11,4) Nodename (id, level)

X-Tree XPath expression is transformed into a rooted tree, the X- tree Vertices of a X- tree are called X- nodes Nodetests in the expression are translated into X- nodes Unique incoming edges. labeled with the specified axis One X- node is marked as 'Output X- node' Root /descendant:: Y[ child:: U]/ descendant:: W[ ancestor:: Z/ child:: V] Root descendent Y UW Z V child ancestor child descendent
10
X-Dag X-Dag is generated from the X-tree by reformatting the reverse axis into forward axis: Reverse direction –Ancestor Descendant –Parent Child Handle Orphan nodes –Add descendent axe from Root to orphan nodes

Root Y WU Z V descendent child ancestor /descendent::Y[child::U]/descendent::W[ancestor::Z/child::V] Root Y WU Z V descendent child descendent X-treeX-dag
12
Matching A matching for an x-tree X is a partial mapping from the x-nodes to the elements of document D where –All mapped vertices satisfy the node test –The edge between two mapped vertices describes the relationship between the mapped elements in the document A total matching exists if all the nodes of the x-tree are mapped. It is easy to show that an element e is in the result of the evaluation of xpath expression iff there is a total matching for the corresponding x-tree. The same argument can be proven for an x-dag. A total matching of an x-tree node v, is composed of total matching at each of the children of v. This is not true for an x-dag node.
