We present in this paper an approach for XQuery optimization that exploits minimization opportunities raised in composition-style nesting of queries. More precisely, we consider t...
The problem of efficiently evaluating XPath and XQuery queries has become increasingly significant since more and more XML data is stored in its native form. We propose a novel op...
XQuery is widely used for querying XML documents. Within this paper, we examine optimization rules for XQuery queries that exploit type information of the input XML document given ...
This paper studies five strategies for storing XML documents including one that leaves documents in the file system, three that use a relational database system, and one that uses...

We present and analyze an algorithm for equivalent rewriting of XQuery queries using XQuery views, which is complete for a large class of XQueries featuring nested FLWR blocks, XM...
