Abstract

A number of XML labeling methods have been proposed to store XML documents in relational databases. However, they have a vulnerable point, in insertion operations. We propose the Variable Length Endless Insertable (VLEI) code and apply it to XML labeling to reduce the cost of insertion operations. Results of our experiments indicate that a combination of the VLEI code and Dewey order is effective for handling skewed insertions.
