XML has become the new standard for storing, exchanging, and publishing of data over both the internet and the ubiquitous data stream environment. As demand for efficiency in handling XML document grows, labeling scheme has become an important topic in data storage. Recently proposed labeling schemes reflect the dynamic XML environment, which itself provides motivation for the discovery of an efficient labeling scheme. However, previous proposed labeling schemes have several problems: 1) An insertion of a new node into the XML document triggers re-labeling of pre-existing nodes. 2) They need larger memory space to store total label. etc. In this paper, we introduce a new labeling scheme called a Circle Labeling Scheme. In CLS, XML documents are represented in a circular form, and efficient storage of labels is supported by the use of concepts Rotation Number and Parent Circle/Child Circle. The concept of Radius is applied to support inclusion of new nodes at arbitrary positions in the tree. This eliminates the need for re-labeling existing nodes and the need to increase label length, and mitigates conflict with existing labels. A detailed experimental study demonstrates efficiency of CLS.

There have been many researches for XML as the international standard to store and exchange data on the internet. Among these research fields, we focus on the techniques labeling the nodes of the XML tree that is required for querying the structural information. A labeling scheme assigns the unique label to the nodes and supports the queries for the structural information such as Ancestor-Descendant and Parent-Child relationships. In this paper, we propose a labeling scheme using vector representation where the assigned labels are not altered although XML documents are changed dynamically. Our labeling scheme reduces the storage requirement for the labels of the XML tree and provides the efficient query by using the fixed-length labels with a short size. Result of performance evaluation shows that our labeling scheme is superior to the previous approaches.

When an XML document is updated in order to represent correctly the structural relationships of nodes in a document, the existing XML labeling schemes relabel nodes or use a labeling scheme that the label of a node has much information. However, the relabeling on large XML documents needs many labeling costs and the labeling scheme that the label of a node has much information requires many storage costs. Therefore, the existing labeling schemes degrade significantly query processing performance on dynamic XML documents. This paper proposes the bit-pattern labeling scheme that solves the problems of the existing schemes. The proposed labeling scheme outperforms the existing labeling schemes because the structural relationships of nodes are represented with a bit string.

An XML labeling scheme is an efficient encoding method to determine the ancestor-descendant relationships of elements and the orders of siblings. Recently, many dynamic XML documents have appeared in the Web Services and the AXML(the Active XML), so we need to manage them with a dynamic XML labeling scheme. The prime number labeling scheme is a representative scheme which supports dynamic XML documents. It determines the ancestor-descendant relationships between two elements with the feature of prime numbers. When a new element is inserted into the XML document using this scheme, it has an advantage that an assigning the label of new element don't change the label values of existing nodes. But it has to have additional expensive operations and data structure for maintaining the orders of siblings. In this paper, we suggest the order number sharing method and algorithms categorized by the insertion positions of new nodes. They greatly minimize the existing method's sibling order maintenance cost.

Unlike the traditional databases, queries on XML streams are restricted to a real time processing and memory usage. In this paper, a robust labeling scheme is proposed, which quickly identifies structural relationship between XML fragments. The proposed labeling scheme provides an effective query processing by removing many redundant operations and minimizing the number of fragments being processed. In experimental results, the proposed labeling scheme efficiently processes query processing and optimizes memory usage.

Labeling schemes which don't consider about frequent update in dynamic XML documents need relabeling process to reflect the changed label information whenever the tree of XML document is update. There is disadvantage of considerable expenses in the dynamic XML document which can occurs frequent update. To solve this problem, we suggest prime number labeling scheme that doesn't need relabeling process. However the prime number labeling scheme does not consider that it needs to update the sibling order of nodes in the tree of XML document. This update process needs much costs because the most of the tree of XML document has to be researched and rewritten. In this paper, we propose the prime number labeling scheme with sibling order value that can maintain the sibling order without researching or rewriting the tree of XML documents.

As demand for efficiency in handling dynamic XML data grows, new dynamic XML labeling schemes have been researched. The key idea of the dynamic XML labeling scheme is to find ancestor-descendent-sibling relationships and to minimize memory space to store total label, response time and range of relabeling incurred by update operations. The prime number labeling scheme is a representative scheme which supports dynamic XML documents. It determines the ancestor-descendant relationships between two elements by a simple divisibility test of labels. When a new element is inserted into the XML data using this scheme, it does not change the label values of existing nodes. However, since each prime number must be used exclusively, labels can become significantly large. Therefore, in this paper, we introduce a novel technique to effectively reduce the problem of label overflow. The suggested idea is based on tree decomposition. When label overflow occurs, the full tree is divided into several sub-trees, and nodes in each sub-tree are separately labeled. Through experiments, we show the effectiveness of our scheme.

Recently, the needs for an efficient and secure access control method of dynamic XML data in a ubiquitous data streams environment have become an active research area. In this paper, we proposed an improved role-based prime number labeling scheme for an efficient and secure access control labeling method in dynamic XML data streams. And we point out the limitations of existing access control and labeling schemes for XML data assuming that documents are frequently updated. The improved labeling method where labels are encoded ancestor-descendant and sibling relationships between nodes but need not to be regenerated when the document is updated. Our improved role-based prime number labeling scheme supports an infinite number of updates and guarantees the arbitrary nodes insertion at arbitrary position of the XML tree without label collisions. Also we implemented an efficient access control using a role-based prime number labeling. Finally, we have shown that our approach is an efficient and secure through experiments.

범위 기반 레이블링 스킴(range-based labeling scheme)을 이용하면 임의의 두 노드에 대한 조상-자손 관계를 쉽게 판별할 수 있으므로, XPath나 XQuery 형태의 질의를 효율적으로 처리할 수 있다. 그러나 노드의 삽입이 일어나는 동적인 상황에서는 불가피하게 전체 또는 일부의 레이블을 다시 할당(re-labeling)할 가능성이 있다는 문제점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 Dietz 레이블링 스킴을 개선한 EP2(extended preorder ＆amp; postorder) 레이블링 스킴을 제안한다. 제안하는 스킴은 동일한 저장 공간상에서 범위 기반 레이블링 스킴에 비해 동적인 갱신에 유리하며, 기존의 구조 조인 알고리즘(structural join algorithm)을 이용하여 효율적으로 구조 질의(structural query)를 처리할 수 있다.
