XML documents which are used for exchanging structured documents between heterogeneous distributed system are increasing recently. It needs an object-oriented visualization tool for XML documents. So, we propose rules and an algorithm to represent structure of XML documents using UML Class Diagram. It helps to generate XML documents which are included links by understanding easily constructs of them and reduce gap of schema for them between heterogeneous databases. We propose formal models and modeling functions of XML links which provide an efficient environment for processing object-oriented documents.

이질적 데이터베이스간의 상호연동을 위해서 데이터의 구조를 파악하고 유용한 데이터를 선택하는 일은 매우 어렵고 많은 작업시간이 요구된다. XML을 이용하여 이질적 데이터베이스간의 데이터 교환을 위한 기존 연구가 진행된바 있으나 DTD를 통한 사상이 지원되지 않는 등 미흡한 점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 데이터베이스간의 이질적 상호연동을 효과적으로 수행하는 시스템을 설계한다. 시스템은 원시와 목표 데이터베이스로부터 추출한 스키마 그래프간의 사용자에 의한 사상을 기반으로 원시 데이터베이스를 목표 데이터베이스로의 상호연동을 효과적으로 지원한다. 본 논문에서는 시스템에 의한 이질적 데이터베이스간의 상호연동을 예를 통해서 보여준다.

There have been many considerations to develop new content services that integrate a variety of contents databases being already constructed and then produce new content services which are more valuable than existing services in many applications such as Internet portal, EC, and CRM. By doing the above thing, the burden of searching databases to access interesting databases and service applications can be reduced and the database availability of users is also enhanced through a single view integrating multiple contents database. This paper presents implementation details of the query processing system that is a core component of the database integration system, which can construct a virtual database that integrates databases being managed by multiple heterogeneous database systems using XML data model and support a quay facility on the integrated database.

A XML Instance repository model based on the Edge-Labeled Graph is suggested for storing the XML instance in Relational Databases, This repository model represents the XML instance as a data graph based on the Edge-Labeled Graph, extracts the defined value based on the structure of data path, element, attribute, and table index table presented as database schema, and stores these values using the Mapper module, In order to support querry, XML repository model offers the module translating XQL which is a query language under XPATH to SQL, and has DBtoXML generator module restoring the stored XML instance. As a result, it is possible to represent the storage relationship between the XML instances and the proposed repository model in terms of Graph-based Path, and it shows the possibility of easy search of specific element and attribute information.

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.

The number of XML documents, which are widely used as a standard method for information expression and exchange in the web-based environment, increases rapidly along with the growing production of large XML documents. Many studies have been made to store and retrieve these XML documents on RDBMS, among which Shared Inlining storage method has a higher level of retrieval efficiency. The Shared Inlining method is the technique that analyzes the DTD information and stores the XML document in RDBMS by dividing for each node component. This study proposes the technique to resolve the overlapping problem that occurs in the element with several child nodes in the existing Shared Inlining method. The suggested method stores the XML document in the Shared Inlining structures appropriate to the DTD definition and enhances the accuracy of retrieval.

XML(extensible Markup Language) is effective to information retrieval and sharing but has defects related to the data security. And, as a solution of this problem, the current XML security researches such as XML digital signature, XML data encryption, and XML access control exclude the validation property of XML document. The validation of XML should be considered for the secure information sharing in the XML-based environment. In this paper, we design and implement the system to support both security and validation to XML document. Our system performs data encryption and maintenance of valid status of XML document by referencing new XML schema namespace. In addition, it also provides the XML schema security function through the XML schema digital signature. During generating XML schema digital signature, DOMHash method which has the advantage of the faster speed than canonical XML method is applied to XML schema. In conclusion, our system shows the improved functions in flexibility, scalability, and reliability compared with the existing XML security researches.

In the paper we propose an index method for XML streaming services, where a server broadcasts XML data to a lot of clients in wireless information systems. In order to control the access and tuning time of mobile clients, the proposed method constructs the XML stream through replicating partial index intermixed with parts of data. For this purpose, we propose a two-level tree structure for separating index and XML data into two parts: replicated vs. non-replicated. We analyze the performance of the proposed method with respect to access time and tuning time. With the analysis result, we derive the optimal level value.

In these days, Entity-Relationship Model is the most popular modeling tool for designing databases, and XML is a de facto standard language for representing and exchanging data. But, because of many commercial products supporting Entity-Relationship Model use their's own representation formats, and thus it gives rise to difficulties the inter-operability between these products. In this paper, we propose an ERX, a generation tool of XML Schema from Entity-Relationship Model. ERX receives an Entity-Relationship Diagram as an input, transforms it based on transformation rules, and generates a XML Schema Definition as an output. Transformation rules contain entity set, relationship set, mapping cardinalities, and generalization.

Nowadays an information exchange on XML such as B2B electronic commerce is spreading. Therefore the systematic and stable management mechanism for storing the exchanged Information is needed. For this goal there are many research activities for connection between XML application and relational database. But because XML data have hierarchical structures and relational database can store only flat-structured data, we need to store XML data in object-oriented database that support hierarchical structure. Accordingly the modeling methodology for storing XML data in object-oriented database is needed. In order to build good quality application systems, modeling is an important first step. In 1997, the OMG adopted the UML as its standard modeling language. Since industry has warmly embraced UML, its popularity should become more important in the future. So a design methodology based on UML is need to develop efficiently XML applications. In this paper, we propose a unified design methodology for XML applications based on object- oriented database using UML. To this goal, first we introduce a XML modeling methodology to design W3C XML schema using UML and second we propose data modeling methodology for object-oriented database schema to store efficiently XML data in object-oriented databases.
