Conv2XML: Relational Schema Conversion to XML Nested-Based Schema
نویسندگان
چکیده
Conversion of relational data to XML is a critical topic in the database area. This approach translates the rigid tabular structures of relational databases into hierarchical XML structures. Logical connections between bits of data depicted by relationships are represented more naturally by tree-like structures. Conv2XML and ConvRel are two algorithms for converting relational schema to XML Schema focusing on preserving the source relationships and their structural constraints. ConvRel translates each relationship individually into a nested XML structure. Conv2XML identifies complex nested structures capable of modelling all relationships existent in a relational database.

Schema Conversion Methods between XML and Relational Models
In this chapter, three semantics-based schema conversion methods are presented: 1) CPI converts an XML schema to a relational schema while preserving semantic constraints of the original XML schema, 2) NeT derives a nested structured XML schema from a flat relational schema by repeatedly applying the nest operator so that the resulting XML schema becomes hierarchical, and 3) CoT takes a relatio...
متن کاملSolving Schema Conversion Problem between XML and Relational Models: Semantic Approach
Schema conversion problem aims to convert a source schema S in the given model M1 to an equivalent target schema T in the desired model M2. In this paper, we especially study schema conversion problem between XML and relational models. We present three semantics-based schema conversion algorithms: 1) CPI converts an XML schema to a relational schema while preserving semantic constraints of the ...

متن کاملNeT & CoT: Inferring XML Schemas from Relational World
With XML emerging as the data format of the Internet era, there is a substantial increase in the amount of data encoded in XML. However, the majority of everyday data is still stored and maintained in relational databases. Therefore, we expect the needs to convert such relational data into XML documents will grow substantially as well. Two conversion algorithms, called NeT and CoT, to translate...
متن کاملEffective Schema Conversions between XML and Relational Models
As Extensible Markup Language (XML) is emerging as the data format of the Internet era, there is an increasing need to efficiently store and query XML data. At the same time, as requirements change, we expect a substantial amount of conventional relational data to be converted or published as XML data. One path to accommodate these changes is to transform XML data into relational format (and vi...
