This paper presents a query processing model in a wrapper based on the XML view tree. The query processing in a wrapper requires view composition, query translation into local sources, and generation of XML documents from local query results. We present a query processing model based on the view tree, where the XML views and the XML query is represented by the view tree. Since the view tree keeps the structure of a virtual XML document, it is easy to navigate the path expression. The view tree is also used as a template for schema generation and XML document generation as a query result. Moreover this conceptual uniform abstraction for the XML view and the user query makes it easy to support a multi-level XML view and to implement our composition mechanism.

In this paper, we design and implement a multiple-view VoiceXML editor to improve editing efficiency of the VoiceXML. The VoiceXML multiple-view Editor uses a MVC framework to support multiple views and paradigm. Our multiple-view editor consists of Model. View and Controller using MVC framework. A model, core data structure. is constructed of abstract syntax tree and abstract grammar. A view. user interface. is formalized in unparsing rules and unparser. A controller. to control model and view. is made of command interpreter and tree handler. The VoiceXML multiple-view editor overcomes a drawbacks of existing XML editors by showing document structure and context concurrently. as well as document flows. Our VoiceXML multiple-view editor. which MVC framework has been applied, provides various editing views concurrently to users. Thereby. it supports efficient and convenient editing environments for voice-web documents to users and it guarantees transparency of editors. as various views have a same consistent model.

A mediator-wrapper system, which is one of integration methods of heterogeneous databases, preserves a virtual integrated view rather than physical movement of the contents of each database. In order for a mediator to preserve a virtual integrated view, it requires the schema manager of the wrapper which communicates with local databases. This paper presents a schema manager of a wrapper that provides a mediator with XML schema which is generated from relational database schema. The XML schema manager supports a user-defined XML view. We present the view tree model which is used for materializing the use-defined XML view to generate XML schema, and the conversion algorithm based on the proposed view tree model. This model is can be uniformly applied to all schema managers of heterogeneous information sources.

In order to integrate distributed biological information sources physically or virtually, it is necessary to overcome the heterogeneity of information sources and support a superior generality and adaptation in order to satisfy user's various demands. In this paper, we present a flexible and general XML query engine of a wrapper system in designing the middleware system to integrate data as well as application programs. Since this query engine applies user-defined XML view, it is possible to composite flexible integrated query. The query processing in a wrapper requires view composition, query translation into local sources, and generation of XML documents from local query results. We present a query processing model based on the view tree, where the n views and the XML queries are represented by the view tree. Moreover, to confirm the generality of our query processing model, we present a methodology of query processing for relational databases, web sources, and application programs whose return types of query results are relational tuples or XML documents.

As the secure distribution and sharing of information over the World Wide Web becomes increasingly important, the needs for flexible and efficient support of access control systems naturally arise. Since the eXtensible Markup Language (XML) is emerging as the de-facto standard format of the Internet era for storing and exchanging information, there have been recently, many proposals to extend the XML model to incorporate security aspects. To the lesser or greater extent, however, such proposals neglect the fact that the data for XML documents will most likely reside in relational databases, and consequently do not utilize various security models proposed for and implemented in relational databases. In this paper, we take a rather different approach. We explore how to support security models for XML documents by leveraging on techniques developed for relational databases considering object perspective. More specifically, in our approach, (1) Users make XML queries against the given XML view/schema, (2) Access controls for XML data are specified in the relational database, (3) Data are stored in relational databases, (4) Security check and query evaluation are also done in relational databases, and (5) Controlling access control is executed considering XML tree levels

XML 뷰 기반의 랩퍼 시스템은 지역 데이터베이스에 대한 XML 뷰 정의를 지원하고, 사용자는 XML 질의어를 이용하여 XML 뷰에 대한 질의를 할 수 있다. 이 때, XML 뷰와 질의간의 합성이 필수적인데, 본 논문에서는 XML 뷰와 사용자 질의를 높은 수준에서 추상화하여 모두 트리로 표현하고, 이것을 이용하여 질의에 나타난 뷰의 경로식에 대한 항해를 통해 합성을 수행하는 모델을 제시한다. 뷰 트리는 가상의 XML 문서의 구조를 그대로 반영하기 때문에 경로식의 항해를 쉽게 하며, XML 뷰의 스키마를 생성하고, 질의 결과 문서를 구성하는 템플릿으로 활용된다. 또한, XML 뷰와 질의의 추상화된 개념적 통일은 다단계 XML 뷰 정의와 합성을 지원하고, 구현을 용이하게 한다.

Although RDF ontologies might be expressed in XML tree model, existing methods for protection of XML documents are not suitable for securing RDF ontologies. The graph style and inference feature of RDF demands a new security model development. Driven by this goal, this paper proposes a new query-oriented model for the RDF ontology access control. The proposed model rewrites a user query using a three-layered ontology view. The proposal resolves the problem that the existing approaches should generate inference models depending on inference rules. Accessible ontology concepts and instances which a user can visit are defined as ontology views, and the inference view defined for controling an inference query enables a controlled inference capability for the user. This paper defines the three-layered view and describes algorithms for query rewriting according to the views. An implemented prototype with its system architecture is shown. Finally, the experiment and comparative evaluation result of the proposal and the previous approach is described.

This paper proposes XML based mobile information visualization system using rectangle layout to show effectively XML based information to user on mobile devices which do not have a rich display feature. We define XML schema that can describes information in graph with cycle as well as information in tree form. It suggests using rectangle layout method that is an improvement of the traditional method of the radial layout because the specificity of the mobile display should be considered when XML information is rendered on the screen. And then, it applies DOI of fisheye view algorithm to information on the rectangle layout to represent all and user interest information. And it also suggests an effective method considering capability of mobile devices to decrease user's confusion and improve awareness of user when a user Interest target selected. The proposed information visualization system in the form of focus+context supports an effective interface for information retrieval via mobile devices, such as PDA, cellular phone and smart phone, that usually have less power of CPU than that of PC and the constraints of display and memory. In this paper, it performs experiments and makes an evaluation comparing information visualization method between the traditional radial layout and the proposed rectangle layout.
