A Framework for Using Materialized XPath Views in XML Query Processing

Summary: Framework for materialized XPath views to speed XML query processing. XPath matching determines view coverage, derives the remaining subexpressions, and builds compensation expressions; experiments show efficient matching and modest compilation-time overhead.
