XQueC: Pushing Queries to Compressed XML Data

Summary: XQueC queries XML while preserving compression, separating structure from content and exposing compression-aware access paths. Its extended algebra and cost-based optimizer mix compressed and regular operators for complex XQuery, including joins, aggregates, nesting, and construction.
