a wonderful conection of the three concepts
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
The book provides a wonderful link of the three concepts: Relation, Semistructured , and XML. The discussion is clear and concise. We know that Relation is well used in modelling enterprise data today, since the high performance of RDBMS . On the other hand, XML is well accepted the most suitable for business information representation. The author uniformed them under the banner of semistructured data model. The text drives the readers into the insight of the data world even though it is in the abstract level. Anyone can be benifitted by reading it if he want to go deep in the XML and data world.

Read this book and understand it unless you want to flounder around solving problems that these guys already thought through. The book is not a "how-to" guide, but rather a discussion of all the abstract concepts you need to master if you want to do things right. I found this book far more readable than some of the research these guys have published, and a very useful starting point for evaluating various products and technologies related to XML and web data.
This great book is obligatory for people working with XML !

This book gives an excellent introduction into the formal framework underlying XML. It exposes an important connection between XML and the existing research in databases about the semistructured data model. XML is about to becoming a crucial standard - not just for data exchange, but also for representing data in databases.The book describes the formal framework behind XML and describes several crucial issues such as querying and storing XML efficiently.This book is a must for all people interested in XML!
