Order is essential for XML query processing. Efficient XML processing with order consideration over relational storage is non-trivial, especially for complex nested XQuery expressi...
This work may be seen as a further proof of the versatility of the relational database model. Here, we add XQuery to the catalog of languages which RDBMSs are able to "speak&...
Semantic caching is an important technology for improving the response time of future user queries specified over remote servers. This paper deals with the fundamental query conta...
In this concise paper, we present the Nested Relational Sequence Model (NRSM), which is an extension of the Nested Relational Data Model in order to handle XML data. We also intro...
