....keyed in using the text editor. The query by example paradigm employed by ATBE allows rapid and incremental development of queries, which can be easily refined to highlight certain structural properties of trees under investigation. Many systems have used similar concepts in constructing queries [15], 25] 36] 49] 50] The difference is that, whereas most of these systems express operations in tabular skeletons, ATBE expresses operations in tree structures, which represent the entries in the underlying database. In this sense, ATBE s queries are similar to those of 4 Using the result ....

....show how our approach keeps all these properties in a generalized interface designed primarily for documents, yet applicable to any complex structured data. There have been other attempts at generalizing QBE for complex structures. Notable among them is the Generalized Query By Example (GQBE) JW83] which uses an interface very similar to QBE for application for databases with complex hierarchical structures. This method uses nested tables, similar to the one shown in Figure 2, for composing queries as well as specifying insertion, deletion and update commands to the database. There are a ....

....in both XSQL and the query language of O 2 . In the following sections we will discuss some of the languages mentioned above in more detail and compare with VQL. 9 Generalized Query by Example Data Manipulation Language Based on Database Logic 9. 1 Overview Generalized Query By Example (GQBE) JW83] as the name implies, is an extension of QBE to heterogeneous (hierarchical and network in addition to relational) case. Although hierarchical and network database models have been loosing their popularity for the last decades, the structural part of object oriented model shows a resemblance to ....
