Moreover it is fre- quently used as a logical format to store structured and semi- structured data in databases. We propose a model-driven and configurable approach for modeling hierarchical XML data using object role modeling (ORM) as a flat conceptual model. First a non-hierarchical conceptual schema of the problem domain is built using ORM and then different hierarchical views of the conceptual schema or parts of it are specified by the designer using transformation rules. A hierarchical mod- eling notation called H-ORM is proposed to show these hier- archical views and model more complex semi-structured data constructs and constraints. We also propose an algorithm to map hierarchical H-ORM views to XML schema language.展开更多

Query optimization for XML structured-documents stands out as one of themost challenging research issues in this area because of the much enlarged optimization (search)space, which is a consequence of the intrinsic complexity of the underlying data model of XML data.We therefore propose to apply deterministic transformations on query expressions to mostaggressively prune the search space and fast achieve a sufficiently improved alternative (if not theoptimal) for each incoming query expression. This idea is not just exciting but practicallyattainable. This paper first provides an overview of our optimization strategy, and then focuses onthe key implementation issues of our rule-based transformation system for XML query optimization ina database environment. The performance results we obtained from experimentation show that ourapproach is a valid and effective one.展开更多
