Abstract

XPath is a language to retrieve information in the XML documents, which is used to traverse their elements and attributes. At the present time there are a large number of optimization techniques on XML applications at home and abroad, including axis join queries, query rewriting, the semantic cache using in the client, redundancy elimination based on marked suffix tree (MST) and so on. However, these techniques are lack of research to eliminate redundancy in the network environments. In this paper, we reduce communication costs and computing costs over networks by rewriting the queries submitted by the client. Given a set of queries, we compute a minimal XML view that can answer all the original queries and eliminate possible redundancy.
