Abstract

Recently, a lot of index techniques for storing and querying XML document have been studied so far and many researches of them used coordinate-based methods. But update operation and query processing to express structural relations among elements, attributes and texts make a large burden. In this paper, we propose an efficient extensible index technique based on pattern information. It supports containment queries and pattern queries and it does not cause serious performance degradations even if there are frequent update operations. Management of XML Schema's pattern information can reduce the number of nodes participating in the containment relationship query processing among each element. Overall, the performance could be improved by reduction of the number of times for traversing nodes.
