چکیده

Recently, a large number of XML documents are available on the Internet. This trend motivated many researchers to analyze them multi-dimensionally in the same way as relational data. In this paper, we propose a new framework for multidimensional analysis of XML documents, which we call XML-OLAP. We base XML-OLAP on XML warehouses where every fact data as well as dimension data are stored as XML documents. We build XML cubes from XML warehouses. We propose a new multidimensional expression language for XML cubes, which we call XML-MDX. XML-MDX statements target XML cubes and use XQuery expressions to designate the measure data. They specify text mining operators for aggregating text constituting the measure data. We evaluate XML-OLAP by applying it to a U.S. patent XML warehouse. We use XML-MDX queries, which demonstrate that XML-OLAP is effective for multi-dimensionally analyzing the U.S. patents.

XML Multidimensional Modelling and Querying

As XML becomes ubiquitous and XML storage and processing becomes more efficient, the range of use cases for these technologies widens daily. One promising area is the integration of XML and data warehouses, where an XML-native database stores multidimensional data and processes OLAP queries written in the XQuery interrogation language. This paper explores issues arising in the implementation of...

Multidimensional Anlaysis of XML Document Contents with OLAP Dimensions

With the emergence of Semi-structured data format (such as XML), the storage of documents in centralised facilities appeared as a natural adaptation of data warehousing technology. Nowadays, OLAP (On-Line Analytical Processing) systems face growing non-numeric data. This chapter presents a framework for the multidimensional analysis of textual data in an OLAP sense. Document structure, metadata...
