It is essential to maintain hierarchical information properly for efficient XML query processing. Well known approach to represent hierarchical information of XML tree is assigning a specific node number to each node of XML tree. Insertion and deletion of XML node can occur at any position in a dynamic XML tree. A dynamic numbering scheme allows us to add nodes to or delete nodes from an XML tree without relabeling or with relabeling only a few existing nodes of XML tree while executing XML query efficiently. According to W3C XQuery update facility specifications a node can be added as first or last child of the existing node in XML tree. Generating new number for last child requires referencing the number of previous last child. Getting the number of last child is very costly with previous approaches. We have developed a new dynamic numbering scheme PSN which is very effective for insertion of a node as last child. Our approach reduces the time to find last child dramatically by removing sorting of children.

There have been many research efforts which find efficiently all occurrences of the structural relationships between the nodes in the XML document tree for processing a XML query. Most of them use the region numbering which is based on positions of the nodes. Hut The position-based node numbering schemes require update of many node numbers in the XML document li the XML nodes are inserted frequently in the same position. In this paper, we propose ENN(extensible node numbering) scheme using the bucket number which is represented with the variable-length string for decreasing the number of the node numbers which is updated. We also present an performance analysis by comparing ENN method with TP(extended preorder) method.

There has been many active researches on dynamic XML numbering scheme for efficient retrievals and updates of XML. There are two major approaches for dynamic numbering schemes. One approach is dependant on adjacent node numbers when they assign new number for newly inserted node. While the other approach is independent on adjacent node numbers. In this paper we explain the table schema and procedures for our experiments on an SQL host to compare the performance of the two approaches and shows W3C XQuery performance results of the two approaches on the SQL host.

최근 XML은 인터넷상의 데이터의 표현 및 교환의 표준으로 인식되면서 XML에 대한 많은 연구가 이루어지고 있다 특히 XML문서의 정보량이 방대해짐에 따라 빠른 검색의 필요로 많은 인덱싱 기법들이 제안되었다. 최근의 연구 중, 패스를 기반으로 하는 인덱싱 기법들은 중간노드와 최하위노드의 검색, 조상-후손관계의 조인연산 등에서 성능이 떨어지는 경향이 있다. 이를 보완하기 위해 연구된 Numbering-Scheme 기반의 인덱싱 기법들은 대부분의 검색에서 우수한 성능을 보인다. 그러나 하위 노드가 늘어나는 경우엔 검색 오버헤드가 커질 수 있으며, 대량의 XML 문서나 구조가 다른 XML 문서가 추가되면 인덱스와 데이터 값의 재조정이 필요하게 된다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 본 논문은 Numbering-Scheme을 기반으로 각 노드별 노드범위(Node-Range)와 Pre-Order List물 추가하여 검색성능을 높이고, 데이터의 삽입, 삭제에 효과적인 인덱싱 기법을 제안한다.

In this paper, we propose indexing method to manage large amount of XML documents efficiently, using the range of node and Pre-Oder List. The most of XML indexing methods are based on path or numbering method. However, the method of path-based indexing method shows disadvantages of performance degradation for join operations of ancestor-descendent relationships, and searching for middle and lower nodes. The method of numbers-scheme based indexing has to number all nodes of XML documents, since search overhead increased and the disk space for indexes was wasted. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a novel indexing method using node ranges and Preorder-Lists to overcome these problems. The proposed method more efficiently stores similar structured XML documents. In addition, our method supports flexible insertion and deletion of XML documents.

최근 XML은 전자상거래에서 의학, 국방, 법률 등의 전문분야에 이르기까지 많은 분야에서 활용되고 있으며, 데이터의 양 또한 방대해지고 있다. 따라서 대량의 XML 문서들을 효과적으로 저장하고 빠르게 검색할 수 있는 많은 인덱싱 기법들이 연구되고 있다. 최근의 인덱싱 기법들 중 Numbering Scheme 을 기반으로 한 인덱싱 기법들은 대부분의 검색에 우수한 성능을 보이나 하위노드의 수가 늘어나면 검색 오버헤드가 커질 수 있으며, 대량의 XML 문서의 추가 삽입 및 구조가 다른 XML 문서의 삽입시에 인덱스와 데이터 값의 재조정에 따른 많은 비용이 발생하게 된다. 이에 우리는 Numbering Scheme 을 기반으로 하지만, 각 노드별로 노드범위(Node-Range)와 Order-Array를 추가하여 검색성능을 향상시키고 대량의 XML 문서의 삽입 및 구조가 다른 XML 문서의 삽입시에 발생되는 문제를 해결하고자 한다.

XML data generally consists of a hierarchical tree-structure which is reflected in mechanisms to store and retrieve XML data. Therefore, when storing XML data in the database, the hierarchical relationships among the XML elements are taken into consideration during the restructuring and storing of the XML data. Also, in order to support the search queries from the user, a mechanism is needed to compute the hierarchical relationship between the element structures specified by the query. The structural join operation is one solution to this problem, and is an efficient computation method for hierarchical relationships in an in database based on the node numbering scheme. However, in order to process a tree structured XML query which contains a complex nested hierarchical relationship it still needs to carry out multiple structural joins and results in another problem of having a high query execution cost. Therefore, in this paper we provide a preprocessing mechanism for effectively reducing the cost of multiple nested structural joins by applying the concept of equivalence classes and suggest a query path reduction algorithm to shorten the path query which consists of a regular expression. The mechanism is especially devised to reduce path queries containing branch nodes. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can reduce the time requited for processing the path queries to 1/3 of the original execution time.

A three dimensional finite element generation code has been developed attaching simple blocks. Block can be either a quadrature or a cube depending on the dimension of a subject considered. Finite element serendipity basis functions are employed to map elements between the computational domain and the physical domain. Elements can be generated with wser defined progressive ratio for each block. For blocks to be connected properly, a block should have a consistent numbering scheme for vertices, side nodes, edges and surfaces. In addition the edge information such as the number of elements and the progressive ratio for each direction should also be checked for interfaces to have unique node numbers. Having done so, user can add blocks with little worry about the orientation of blocks, Since the present the present code has been written by a Visual Basic language, it can be developed easily for a user interactive manner under a Windows environment.

In this paper, we propose a new indexing technique to solve various queries which have a strong good point not only database indexing schema take advantage of converting from semi-structured data to structured data but also performance is more faster than before. We represent structure information of XML document between nodes of tree that additional numbering information which can be bit-stream without modified structure of XML tree. And, We add in indexing schema searching incidental structure information in the process. In Querying schema, we recover ancestor nodes through give information of node using indexing schema in complete path query expression as well as relative path query expression. Therefore, it takes advantage of making derivative query expression with given query. In this process, we recognize that indexing and querying schema can get searched result set faster and more accurate. Because response time is become shorter by bit operating, when query occur and it just needs information of record set earch node in database.
