Efficient Evaluation of XML Middle-ware Queries

Summary: Efficient materialization of XML views from relational data via the SilkRoute middleware. It concentrates on selecting SQL queries that minimize data movement and evaluation cost while producing XML-annotated streams, without control over the target RDBMS.
