As XML has become and emerging standard for information exchange on the World Wide Web it has gained attention in database communities of extract information from XML seen as a database model. Data in XML can be mapped to semistructured dta model based on edge-labeled graph and queries can be processed against it Here we propose new query optimization techniques using DTDs(Document Type Definitions) which have the schema information about XML data. Our techniques reduce traditional index techniques Also, as they preserve source database structure, they can process many kinds of complex queries. we implemented our techniques and provided preliminary performance results.

Due to an increasing volume of XML data, it is considered prudent to store XML data on an industry-strength database system instead of relying on a domain specific application or a file system. For shredded XML data stored in relational tables, however, it may not be straightforward to apply existing algorithms for twig query processing, since most of the algorithms require XML data to be accessed in a form of streams of elements grouped by their tags and sorted in a particular order. In order to support XML query processing within the common framework of relational database systems, we first propose several bitmap indexes and their strategies for supporting holistic twig joining on XML data stored in relational tables. Since bitmap indexes are well supported in most of the commercial and open-source database systems, the proposed bitmapped indexes and twig query processing strategies can be incorporated into relational query processing framework with more ease. The proposed query processing strategies are efficient in terms of both time and space, because the compressed bitmap indexes stay compressed during data access. In addition, we propose a hybrid index which computes twig query solutions with only bit-vectors, without accessing labeled XML elements stored in the relational tables.

For using XML data in programming languages, there is a data binding method, which generates classes from XML type definitions. However, since existing binding frameworks for this method generate all classes for element definitions, the number of generated classes becomes large and the complexity of the overall application system gets high. In this research, we propose an inline binding method for selecting necessary classes from element definitions. In the proposed method, classes are created only for elements with repetitions and recursions, and they include fields for values of terminal elements. We introduce a generation algorithm for binding classes and the marshaling methods for recovering the omitted paths. We develop IBinder system to validate the proposed method and compare the generated codes with the ones of existing systems. As a result, we carl show that the number of generated classes decrease substantially compared to other systems.

This paper handles the design and implementation of the system for transforming the XML document bated on XML Schema being different in syntax but similar in logic, with using structured differences analysis. In the system, the merge data is generated from the source and destination documents by utilizing data registry and structured differences analysis, and then XML document is generated from the generated merge data. The XML document transformation system is designed that transformation process to the present application system from the different application system gains advantage in the aspect of time, cost, and reliability. The implementation environment of the system is that it is run on IBM compatible PC and it is developed using the software of visual basic 6.0 with the Platform of Windows 2000.

XML is becoming a de facto standard for the representation and exchange of data, and XML itself is well structured to store and manage data, but it is difficult to understand the document structure at a glance due to its diverse and complex expressions. Thus, it is not appropriate to use it as a tool of conceptual model. In this paper, we propose a method to transform XML schema document structure into conceptual model. To do this, we describe CMXML as a conceptual modeling tool and present transformation rules and data structures for transforming an XML schema structure into CMXML diagram. In the transformation procedure, the XML schema document is input and the CMXML diagram is generated by applying the transformation rules.

A RDB Storage Model based on the Edge-Labeled Graph is suggested for store the XML instance in Relational Databases(RDB). The XML instance being stored is represented by Data Graph based on the Edge-Labeled Graph. Data Path Table, Element, Attribute, and Table Index Table values are extracted. Then Database Schema is defined, and the extracted values are stored using the Mapper. In order to support querry, Repository Model offers the translator translating XQL which is used as query language under XPATH, into SQL. In addition, it creates DBtoXML generator restoring the stored XML instance. As a result, storage relationship between the XML instance and proposed model structure can be expressed in terms of Graph-based Path, and it shows the possibility of easy search of random Element and Attribute information.

With the wide spread of XML data in various fields, the interest in developing convenient user interfaces for inputting XML data is increasing. Previous works on the automated generation of user interfaces have given insufficient supports for various user environments and inconvenient editing tools for complex documents. In this paper, we presents an approach to generate XForms based user interfaces from XML schemas, for inputting XML data. The proposed method consists of three steps: parsing XML schemas, generating XForms codes, and embedding it into host language documents. Specifically, to generate XFonns codes, the rules for generating XForms codes, which support complex types and map simple types to appropriate input controls, are proposed. Experimental results with various kind of schemas show that the proposed method can generate XForms interfaces successfully.

XML has rapidly emerged as the standard for the interchange of data in numerous application areas. To support for efficient queries against XML data, many query languages have been designed. The query languages require the users to know the structure of the XML documents and specify search conditions on the structure. This path-based query against XML documents is a natural consequence of the hierarchical structure of XML. However, it is also desirable to allow the users to formulate no path queries against XML documents, to complement the current path-based queries. In this paper, we design a query expression capable of querying without knowledge about the structure of XML documents, and develop a query processor to evaluate no path queries.

The exchange of model design data among heterogeneous CAD systems is very difficult because each CAD system has different data structures suitable for its own functions. STEP represents product information in a common computer-interpretable form that is required to remain complete and consistent when the product information is needed to be exchanged among different computer systems. However, STEP has complex architecture to represent point, line, curve and vectors of element. Moreover it can't represent geometry data of feature based models. In this study, a structure of XML document that represents geometry data of feature based models as neutral format has been developed. To use the developed XML document, a converter also has been developed to exchange modules so that it can exchange feature based data models among heterogeneous CAD systems. Developed XML document and Converter have been applied to commercial CAD systems.

The Semantic Web is proposed as the next generation Web technology. In the environment of the Semantic Web, resources are related with each other semantically and computers can process this information easily. The Resource Description Framework (RDF) supports this semantic relationship. RDF is the data model for describing metadata of the Web resources. To establish and develop the Semantic Web, methods for managing RDF data efficiently are the most important. So, in this research, we propose methods for storing and querying RDF data using an XML database system. Using an XML database system, XML data, main data of the Semantic Web, and RDF data, the metadata of XML data, can be managed in the same storage and by the same mechanism efficiently. In addition, we propose an efficient data retrieval method and several techniques to improve the system performance. Our query processing technique performs better than an existing system.
