Overview:

XML documents have an inherent tree structure well suited for reflecting hierarchical relationships in data. However, data often also contain relationships, which are not hierarchical but, for instance, cyclic or many to many relationships. These relationships may be modeled by embedding XInclude or XLink elements into an XML document. Unfortunately, XML query languages usually cannot cope very well with these references. This paper evaluates the applicability of GRIPP, a graph index-structure originally developed for indexing large biological networks, for enhancing XML query processing over XInclude and XLink elements. The paper shows how such XML queries can be represented as graph queries and how they can be answered efficiently using GRIPP.
