Querying XML Views of Relational Data

Summary: Publishes relational data as XML via XML views, enabling XML-based querying of RDB contents. Introduces a general framework for evaluating arbitrarily complex XQuery over those views and a push-down optimization that performs most query processing in the relational engine.
