Abstract

XML has become the de facto standard in the real world application over the WWW. Thus, data or query processing is critical to ensure speed response time to cater user queries. Response time is often influenced by the complexity of labeling scheme which is not only used for unique identification of XML nodes, but for structural relationship purpose as well. The labeling scheme adopted is vital to ensure query processing is done flawlessly and promptly. In this paper, we introduce ReLab, a subtree based labeling scheme which generates labels using depth-first traversal. Our experimental evaluation indicated that ReLab outperformed Dietz and region numbering schemes in terms of time taken to generate labels for each XML nodes.
