DDE: From Dewey to a Fully Dynamic XML Labeling Scheme

Summary: Proposes DDE, a dynamic Dewey labeling scheme for XML preserving static labels and avoiding re-labeling on updates. CDDE optimizes insertions, preserves compact labels, and sustains query performance across static/dynamic contexts with minimal integration. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
