With
XML potentially becoming the standard for data exchange on the Internet, a variety
of XML management systems (XMLMS)
differing widely in terms of expressive power and performance are becoming available.
The majority of the XML management systems
are legacy systems (mostly relational database systems) extended to load, query,
and publish data in XML format. A few are native XMLMS and
capture almost all the characteristics of XML data representation. Yet a large
number of new techniques are being tuned or devised for the
management of XML data. In this workshop we propose to focus on the evaluation
of the performance, effectiveness and efficiency, of XMLMS
systems, tools and techniques.
We are calling for papers reporting original research results, industrial experience, or case studies. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
Storage
of XML data
Compression of XML data
Security for XML data
Generation of XML data from legacy applications
Indexing and retrieval of XML data
XML query languages
Query processing over XML data
Interchange and integration of XML data
Benchmarks for the management of XML data
