چکیده

This paper discusses the representation and caching of medical data structured and stored as XML documents. Caching of XML medical data is proposed towards improving the medical data accessibility and availability. The representation of XML medical data is a tree like structure and the caching process is guided by frequency of access of the XML medical data records. Experimentation is carried out for an artificial workload of patient records and both cache and byte hit ratios are evaluated. The proposed caching scheme is proven to be quite effective and beneficial for accessing the medical data.

WreC: A Scalable Middleware Architecture to Enable XML Caching for Web-Services

Web service caching, i.e., caching the responses of XML web service requests, is needed for designing scalable web service architectures. Such caching of dynamic content requires maintaining the caches appropriately to reflect dynamic updates to the back-end data source. In the database, especially relational, context, extensive research has addressed the problem of incremental view maintenance...

Schema-Assisted XML Querying in Unstructured P2P Systems

While XML emerges as the de-facto standard for contents available on the Web, centralized approaches for searching the available information is deemed inappropriate at Web scale. Unstructured peer-to-peer (P2P) systems appear as a promising alternative to delve with scalability limitations, hence efficient querying of data stored in XML databases that reside on peers becomes an important challe...

Efficient Mining of XML Query Patterns for Caching

As XML becomes ubiquitous, the efficient retrieval of XML data becomes critical. Research to improve query response time has been largely concentrated on indexing paths, and optimizing XML queries. An orthogonal approach is to discover frequent XML query patterns and cache their results to improve the performance of XML management systems. In this paper, we present an efficient algorithm called...

Caching Schema Information and Intermediate Results for Fast Incremental XML Query Processing in RDBSs

Many index structures and algorithms have been proposed for efficient query processing in XML databases. However, experience with view-based query answering in RDBSs shows that the incremental evaluation based on cached query results can substantially improve the performance compared to the evaluation from scratch. The main problems related to caching are: (1) to determine which cache entries c...
