【Abstract】 The common feature of the XML query languages is the use of regular path expressions (i.e. RPE) to query XML data. In this paper, we briefly review proposal relational storage schemas for XML documents, which can quickly determine ancestor-descendant relationship between any pair of nodes in the hierarchy of XML data, and effectively supports all query powers in XQuery and keyword searches. We then summary related work for efficient implementation of regular path expression queries based on pre-order lists using an RDBMS. Finally, we develop two algorithms called index improved merge join by using indexing technique, short-circuit technique and pre-spying technique, which are proved to be very efficient by cost analysis. Our algorithms can implement containment joins over the current contexts, and largely avoid useless scanning and seeking over irrelevant fragments of the data for containment joins.更多还原
