Title
XML Database Transformations with Tree Updates
Abstract
For many years the eXtensible Markup Language (XML) has attracted much research attention from database communities, particularly in the area of query and transformation languages such as XQuery and XSLT. XML documents are usually represented as trees. In order to accommodate the diversity of user requirements, it is desirable to conduct transformations on XML trees at flexible abstraction levels. However, most of current approaches have a fixed abstraction level at which updates must be identified for individual nodes and edges. In this paper we study XML database transformations with structured updates, for example, manipulations on portions of a tree, including deleting, modifying or inserting subtrees, copying contexts, etc, by using Abstract State Machines (ASMs) as it has turned out in [3] to be a universal computation model capturing database transformations.
