Abstract

Aiming the special tree-structure of XML data, a triples-encoded method for searching XML documents is proposed. By representing both XML documents and XML queries in triples-encoded sequences, querying XML data is equivalent to finding subsequence matches. Triples-encoded method uses tree structures as the basic unit of query to avoid expensive join operations. The proposed method also provides a unified index on both content and structure of the XML documents; hence it has a performance advantage over methods indexing either just content or structure. Experiments show that the proposed method is more effective, scalable, and efficient in supporting structural queries than traditional XML data query ways which based on Join operations.
