Warp-Edge Optimization in XPath - He, Dyreson   (Correct)

....of queries) to prune the search space. Gardarin, Gruser and Tang propose a technique to optimize linear path expressions and produce a cheap query execution plan [14] Compile time path expansion [15] utilizes a DataGuide (a schema) to prune the search space, while branching path optimization [16] recognizes that queries that follow the same branch in a tree can share the cost of exploring that branch, as does warp edge optimization. Optimization in StruQL [17] combines both indexing and query rewriting. Warp edge optimization dynamically implements branching path optimization. 3 ....

View-Based Query Answering and Query Containment.. - Calvanese, De.. (2001)   (4 citations)  (Correct)

....queries (T2RPQ c s) in which the body of the query has the structure of a tree, if we view each variable as a node and each atom in the query as an edge. T2RPQ c s are a generalization of several subclasses of queries, including generalized path expressions [11, 3] and branching path queries [42, 44], which have been studied extensively both in semistructured and XML data. Notably, XPath expressions [26] can be captured by T2RPQ c s in which the transitive closure operator is used in a limited way. Semistructured data pose challenging problems to the research on databases [56] Among them, ....

Following the paths of XML Data: An algebraic.. - Galanis, Viglas.. (2001)   (6 citations)  (Correct)

....significant shortcomings of both of these approaches, which led us to decide to define a new algebra. The problems we faced are summarized below: Schema information. Previous proposals for algebras require information on the structure of the XML document being queried. For example, MAG 97, MW99a] are heavily dependent on the existence of data guides, which provide a priori information on the interconnections between the graph s vertices. 5 Even though data guides are dynamic, they need to be consulted at query compile time. Our algebra does not rely on an underlying schema. The ....
