Querying Structured Text in an XML Database

Summary: Proposes TIX, a bulk-algebraic framework to fuse IR-style relevance with XML processing. Introduces stack-based TermJoin, Pick, and PhraseFinder for granularity scoring and efficient composite-element retrieval; TermJoin outperforms standard operators.
