Abstract

Recently we proposed referential integrity constraints for XML. In defining two important referential constraints namely XML inclusion dependency and XML foreign key, we considered ordered XML data model to capture the correct semantics of data when tuples are to be produced. In this paper, we report on the performances of checking both XML inclusion dependency and XML foreign key. We show that both these constraints can be checked in linear time in the context of number of tuples and the number of paths.
