XML Constraints: Specification, Analysis, and Applications

Tags: data

Overview To make effective use of XML constraints it is often necessary to reason about them, both at compile-time (for consistency and implication analyses) and at run-time (for incremental constraint checking). Since XML constraints are more complicated than relational dependencies, the static analyses of XML constraints are more intriguing than their relational counterparts. Add to this the difficulty introduced by XML types (e.g., DTDs), which are far more complex than relational schemas. Thus static analyses that may be trivial for relational databases are intractable or even undecidable for XML. Run-time checking of XML constraints is also harder and it depends on whether the XML data is in a native store or shredded into relations.
