Efficient Mining of XML Query Patterns for Caching

Summary: Presents FastXMiner, an efficient algorithm to mine frequent XML query patterns for caching in XML databases. Key results: only a small subset of candidates requires costly tree tests; empirical evaluation shows scalable mining and cache-based speedups. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
