When data schema is changed, added or deleted, the data in data warehouse must comply with the changed data schema, so data warehouse must be re organized or re constructed, but this process is exhausting and wasteful. In order to cope with these problems, this paper develops an approach to model data cube with XML, which emerges as a universal format for data exchange on the Web and which can make data warehouse flexible and scalable. This paper also extends OLAP algebra for XML based data cube, which is called X OLAP.展开更多

Designing an efficient labeling scheme for the nodes of Order-Sensitive XML trees is one of the important methods to obtain the excellent management of XML data. Previous labeling schemes such as region and prefix often sacrifice updating performance and suffer increasing labeling space when inserting new nodes. To overcome these limitations, in this paper we propose a new labeling idea of separating structure from order. According to the proposed idea, a novel Prime-based Middle Fraction Labeling Scheme(PMFLS) is designed accordingly, in which a series of algorithms are proposed to obtain the structural relationships among nodes and to support updates. PMFLS combines the advantages of both prefix and region schemes in which the structural information and sequential information are separately expressed. PMFLS also supports Order-Sensitive updates without relabeling or recalculation, and its labeling space is stable. Experiments and analysis on several benchmarks are conducted and the results show that PMFLS is efficient in handling updates and also significantly improves the performance of the query processing with good scalability.展开更多

In order to develop a parametric design system of typical parts compatible with heterogeneous CAD systems, this paper presents a framework of a network-oriented design system of typical parts, enabled by eXtensible Markup Language (XML), capable of providing parametric design. Firstly, an overview of the framework is presented. In order to map the part feature hierarchy tree of 3D model into an XML tree, an XML-based part template is introduced. The methods of XML-based parametric design and parametric design navigation are described. Finally, an application example of prototype system under the Pro/Engineer platform is given. The application indicates that the proposed framework is valid for parametric design of typical parts/components in heterogeneous CAD systems.展开更多

Such a data model, however, is difficult to be implemented on top of conventional databases because of its unfixed attribute sizes. XML is a matured technology and can be an elegant solution for such challenge. Representing data in XML trigger a question about storage efficiency. The goal of this work is to provide a straightforward answer to such a question. To this end, we compare three different storage models for the parametric temporal data model and show that XML is not worse than any other approaches. Furthermore, XML outperforms the other storages under certain conditions. Therefore, our simulation results provide a positive indication that the myth about XML is not true in the parametric temporal data model.展开更多
