(ii) Preserve parent-child/ancestor-descendant relationships: If uv in Q, then f(v) is a child of f(u) in T; if uv in Q, then f(v) is a descendant of f(u) in T. T: Q: q3 v6 q1 q2 v4 v5 v1 v3 v2

  9. a c c a b b c b b Motivation • XPath evaluation against XML documents -Evaluation based on ordered tree matching: Definition An embedding of a tree pattern Q into an XML document T is a mapping f: Q  T, from the nodes of Q to the nodes of T, which satisfies the following conditions: (i) Preserve node label: For each u  Q, label(u) matches label(f(u)). (ii) Preserve parent-child/ancestor-descendant relationships: If uv in Q, then f(v) is a child of f(u) in T; if uv in Q, then f(v) is a descendant of f(u) in T. (iii) Preserve sibling order: For any two nodes v1 Q and v2 Q, if v1is to the left of v2, then f(v1)is to the left of f(v2) in T. T: Q: q3 v6 q1 q2 v4 v5 v1 v3 v2

We associate each node v in T with a quadruple (DocId, LeftPos, RightPos, LevelNum), where DocId is the document identifier; LeftPos and RightPos are generated by counting word numbers from the beginning of the document until the start and end of the element, respectively; and LevelNum is the nesting depth of the element in the document. 1 <A> <B> <C> </C> <B> <C> </C> <C> </C> <D> </D> </B> </B> <B> </B> </A> 2 3 3 4 5 5 6 6 7 7 8 9 10 10 11

  11. Tree encoding Let T be a document tree. We associate each node v in T with a quadruple (DocId, LeftPos, RightPos, LevelNum), denoted as a(v), where DocId is the document identifier; LeftPos and RightPos are generated by counting word numbers from the beginning of the document until the start and end of the element, respectively; and LevelNum is the nesting depth of the element in the document. (i) ancestor-descendant: a node v1 associated with (d1, l1, r1, ln1) is an ancestor of another node v2 with (d2, l2, r2, ln2) iff d1= d2, l1< l2, and r1> r2. (ii) parent-child: a node v1 associated with (d1, l1, r1, ln1) is the parent of another node v2 with (d2, l2, r2, ln2) iff d1= d2, l1< l2, r1> r2, and ln2 = ln1 + 1. (iii)from left to right: a node v1 associated with (d1, l1, r1, ln1) is to the left of another node v2 with (d2, l2, r2, ln2) iff d1= d2, r1< l2.

Therefore, we need to sort XML • streams by (DocID, RightPos) values. • Each time a query Q is submitted to the system, we will associate • each query node q with a data stream L(q) such that for • each vL(q) label(v) = label(q), in which each query node is • attached with a list of matching nodes of the document tree. T: Q: sorted by RightPos values {v1} L(q1 ) =(1, 1, 11, 1) - {v4, v2, v8} L(q2 ) = L(q5)=(1, 4, 8, 3),(1, 2, 9, 2)(1, 10, 10, 2) - {v3, v5, v6} L(q3) = L(q4) = (1, 3, 3, 3)(1, 5, 5, 4), (1, 6, 6, 4) -

  14. Algorithm for query evaluation • Algorithm description 1. First, we will number the nodes of Q in postorder. So the nodes in Q will be referenced by their postorder numbers. Additionally, we set a virtual node for Q, numbered 0, which is considered to be to the left of any node in Q. • For each node q of Q, a link from it to the left-most leaf node in • Q[q], denoted by (q), is established. For a leaf node q’, (q’) = q’. Q : (q1) A q1 A q1 5 3 (q2) 4 0 q2 B B q5 q2 B B q5 virtual node 2 1 q3 C C q4 C q4 q3 C

  15. Algorithm for query evaluation • Algorithm description • Let q’ be a leaf node in Q. We denote by -1(q’) a set of nodes x • such that for each q x (q) = q’. (q1) -1(q3) = {q1, q2 , q3} A q1 -1(q4) = {q4} (q2) q2 B B q5 -1(q5) = {q5} C q4 q3 C

  16. Algorithm for query evaluation • Algorithm description • Each node v in T is associate it with an array Av of length |Q|, • indexed from 0 to |Q| - 1. In Av, each entry is a query node or , • defined below: If there is a least leaf q’ larger than q such that -1(q’) contains at least one node x with Q[x] being embedded in T[v]; Max{x | x -1(q’)  T[v] embeds Q[x]}, Av[q] =  Otherwise. Av: Q: x1 Av[q] q xj q’

  17. Algorithm for query evaluation • Algorithm description Av: Q: x1 Av[q] q xj q’ • X1 is the largest ancestor of q’ such that T[v] contains Q[X1]. • q’ is the closest leaf node to the right of q. In this way, both the subtree embedding and the left-to-right ordering can be recorded.

  18. 0 1 2 3 4 0 1 2 3 4 1          Av3: Av3: Algorithm for query evaluation • Setting values in Av • If we find Q[x] can be embedded in T[v], we will set Av[q1], ..., • Av[qk] to x, where each ql (1 l k) is a query node to the left of • x, to record the fact that x is the closest node to the right of ql • such that T[v] embeds Q[x].

  19. 0 1 2 3 4 0 1 2 3 4 1 1 2        Av3: Av3: Algorithm for query evaluation • Setting values in Av • If some time later we find another node x’, which is to the right • of x,such that Q[x’] can be embedded in T[v], we will set • Av[p1], ..., Av[ps] to x’, where each pl (1l s) is to the left of • x’ but to the right of qk.

  20. 0 1 2 3 4 0 1 2 3 4 3 1         Av4: Av4: Algorithm for query evaluation • Setting values in Av • If x’ is an ancestor of x, we will find all those entries pointing to a • descendant of x’ on the left-most path in Q[x’]. Replace these • entries with x’. • For all the other nodes v’ such that T[v’] embeds Q[x], we will set • values for the entries in Av’ in the same way as (i), (ii), and (iii). T: A v1 Q : A q1 5 B v8 B v2 4 q2 B B q5 0 3 v3 C B v4 2 1 q3 B C q4 v5 B v6 C D v7

  21. Algorithm for query evaluation • Using Av to check tree embedding • Let q in Q and v in T be the nodes encountered. Let v1, ..., vk be • the child nodes of v. Let q1, ..., ql be the child nodes of q. We first • check Av1starting from Av1[h], where h = (q) - 1. We begin the • search from (q) - 1 because it is the closest node to the left • of the first child of q. Let Av1[h] = q’. If q’ is not q1, noran ancestor • of q1, we will check Av2[h] in a next step. This process continues • until one of the following conditions is satisfied: • (i) All Avj’s have been checked, or • (ii) There exists vj such that Avj[h] is q1 or an ancestor of q1. ? label(v) = label(q) q v q Av1: q1 q1 ql v1 vk h = (q) - 1

  22. Algorithm for query evaluation • Using Av to check tree embedding • If all Avj’s are checked (case (i)), it shows that Q[q1] cannot be • embedded in any subtree rooted at a child node of v. So T[v] • cannot embed Q[v]. If it is case (ii), we know that T[vj] embeds • Q[q1]. If q1 is a //-child, or both q1 and vj are /-children, we will • continue to check Av(j+1)[g] against q2, where g = Avj[h]. • (Otherwise, we will continue to check Av(j+1)[h] against q1.) q Av1: q1 q2 h = (q) - 1 Av2: Av2:[q1]

  28. Algorithm for query evaluation • Experiments • Test results For all the experiments, the buffer pool size was fixed at 2000 pages. The page size of 8KB was used. For each data set, all the tag names are stored in a single list and then each tag name is represented by its order number in that list during the evaluation of queries. In our implementation, each DocId occupies 4 bytes while a number in a Prüfer sequence, a LeftPos or a RightPos occupies 2 bytes. A levelNum value takes only 1 byte. I Page numbers
