Abstract

We revisit the problem of finding maximal contained rewritings of tree pattern queries using views, and extend previous work to the case where both the query and the view involve *, with the restriction that no *-node is incident on any //-edge, and there are no leaf *-nodes. When there is no dtd, we show how to modify the approach of useful embedding in a previous work to find the maximal contained rewriting. When there is a dtdthat is represented as an acyclic schema graph G, we show how to efficiently transform the view Vto an equivalent DAG-pattern V茂戮驴, and reduce the problem of finding the maximal contained rewriting of query Qusing Vunder Gto that of finding the maximal contained rewriting of Qusing V茂戮驴 without dtds.
