In this paper we make three main contributions. We firstly define multivalued dependencies in XML (XMVDs) and show that they generalize the definition of a functional dependenc...
A common approach in designing relational databases is to start with a universal relation schema, which is then decomposed into multiple subschemas. A good choice of subschemas ca...
Recently, the issues of how to define functional dependencies (XFDs) and multivalued dependencies (XMVDs) in XML have been investigated. In this paper we consider the problem of ...

Multi-valued dependencies (MVDs) are an important class of constraints that is fundamental for relational database design. Although modern applications increasingly require the su...
We report on a compilation procedure that derives relational algebra plans from arbitrarily nested XQuery FLWOR blocks. While recent research was able to develop relational encodi...
