TLDR
This paper provides an overview of these aspects of the Lore system, as well as other novel features such as dynamic structural summaries and seamless access to data from external sources.Abstract:
Lore (for Lightweight Object Repository) is a DBMS designed specifically for managing semistructured information. Implementing Lore has required rethinking all aspects of a DBMS, including storage management, indexing, query processing and optimization, and user interfaces. This paper provides an overview of these aspects of the Lore system, as well as other novel features such as dynamic structural summaries and seamless access to data from external sources.read more

XML Data Integration: Merging, Query Processing and Conflict Resolution
TL;DR: This chapter discusses two alternative ways XML data/schema can be integrated: conflict-eliminating and conflict-preserving (where the resulting XML data or XML schema captures the alternative interpretations of the data) and techniques for query processing over integrated, possibly imprecise, XML data.

Storing semistructured data in relational databases
TL;DR: The approach presented here consists in representing the structure of the objects extracted by DEByE by a relational schema and populating the corresponding database accordingly, and showing how to retrieve such objects by automatically transforming high-level query specifications into SQL queries that are executed over the relational database.

Virtualization of Large-Scale Data Storage System to Achieve Dynamicity and Scalability in Grid Computing
Ajay Kumar,Seema Bawa +1 more
TL;DR: A new mechanism for Dynamic and Scalable Storage Management (DSSM) in grid environments is proposed, which divides all Grid Oriented Storage devices into multiple geographically distributed domains to facilitate the locality and simplify the intra-domain storage management.

Nested XPath Query Optimization for XML Structured Document Database
TL;DR: The unnesting strategy is extended with the deterministic optimization approach for Inter and intra document relationship and the final results prove that the optimized query executes faster with better scalability, selectivity and reduction in execution time.

Federated database systems for managing distributed, heterogeneous, and autonomous databases
Amit P. Sheth,James A. Larson +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors define a reference architecture for distributed database management systems from system and schema viewpoints and show how various FDBS architectures can be developed, and define a methodology for developing one of the popular architectures of an FDBS.

Query evaluation techniques for large databases
TL;DR: This survey describes a wide array of practical query evaluation techniques for both relational and postrelational database systems, including iterative execution of complex query evaluation plans, the duality of sort- and hash-based set-matching algorithms, types of parallel query execution and their implementation, and special operators for emerging database application domains.

DataGuides: Enabling Query Formulation and Optimization in Semistructured Databases
Roy Goldman,Jennifer Widom +1 more
TL;DR: The theoretical foundations of DataGuides are presented along with an algorithm for their creation and an overview of incremental maintenance, and performance results based on the implementation of dataGuides in the Lore DBMS for semistructured data are provided.

The Lorel Query Language for Semistructured Data
TL;DR: The main novelties of the Lorel language are the extensive use of coercion to relieve the user from the strict typing of OQL, which is inappropriate for semistructured data; and powerful path expressions, which permit a flexible form of declarative navigational access and are particularly suitable when the details of the structure are not known to the user.
