Abstract

A generic architecture for the storage and retrieval of XML documents in relational databases is proposed. Documents are stored as node trees to facilitate retrieval and manipulation using an interface that conforms to the Document Object Model (DOM) specification of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). This approach offers many benefits, including the ability to leverage DOM programming techniques for the manipulation of XML documents that would otherwise be proibitively large for persistence in memory.
