We've cornered the market on expertise in XQuery. bull; Allows readers to focus on either or both a tutorial or reference-style approach as best suits them. bull; Currently, there are no other competing XQuery books. Authors' personal perspectives offer a welcome change to formal standards specs.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Third International XML Database Symposium, XSym 2005, held in Trondheim, Norway in August 2005 in conjunction with VLDB 2005 and in coordination with the Database and Programming Languages Symposium, DBPL 2005. The 15 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and are preluded by a joint XSym-DBPL keynote talk. The papers are organized in topical sections on indexing support for the evaluation of XPath and XQuery; benchmarks and algorithms for XQuery and XPath evaluation; algorithms for constraint satisfaction checking, information extraction, and subtree matching; and applications of XML in information systems.

Modern database systems enhance the capabilities of traditional database systems by their ability to handle any kind of data, including text, image, audio, and video. Today, databasesystemsareparticularlyrelevanttotheWeb,astheycanprovideinputtocontent generators for Web pages, and can handle queries issued over the Internet. The eXtensible Markup Language (XML) is used in applications running the gamut from content management through publishing to Web services and e-commerce. It is used as the universal communication language for exchanging music and graphics as well as purchase orders and technical documentation. As database systems increasingly talk to each other over the Web, there is a fa- growingdesiretouseXMLasthestandardexchangeformat.Asaresult,manyrelational database systems can export data as XML documents and import data from XML d- uments and provide query and update capabilities for XML data. In addition, so called native XML database and integration systems are appearing on the database market, whose claim is to be especially tailored to storing, maintaining, and easily accessing XML documents. After the huge success of the ?rst XML Database Symposium (XSym 2003) last year in Berlin (already then in conjunction withVLDB) it was decided to establish this symposiumasanannualeventthatissupposedtotakeplaceasanintegralpartofVLDB.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th International XML Database Symposium, XSym 2009, held in Lyon, France, in August 2009 in conjunction with the International Conference on Very Large Data Bases, VLDB 2009. The 8 revised full papers together with 7 short paper were carefully reviewed and selected from 26 submissions. Covering all current aspects of core database technology for XML data management, XML and data integration, and development and deployment of XML applications, the papers are organized in topical sections on XML twig queries, query execution, xml document parsing and compression, XQuery and XML transaction management and schema design.

The Extensible Markup Language (XML) is playing an increasingly important role in the exchange of a wide variety of data on the Web and elsewhere. The database c- munity is interested in XML because it can be used to represent a variety of data f- mats originating in different kinds of data repositories while providing structure and the possibility to add type information. The theme of this symposium is the combination of database and XML te- nologies. Today, we see growing interest in using these technologies together for many Web-based and database-centric applications. XML is being used to publish data from database systems on the Web by providing input to content generators for Web pages, and database systems are increasingly being used to store and query XML data, often by handling queries issued over the Internet. As database systems incre- ingly start talking to each other over the Web, there is a fast-growing interest in using XML as the standard exchange format for distributed query processing. As a result, many relational database systems export data as XML documents, import data from XML documents, provide query and update capabilities for XML data. In addition, so-called native XML database and integration systems are appearing on the database market, and it’s claimed that they are especially tailored to store, maintain and easily access XML documents.
