Abstract: The volume of XML data exchange is explosively
increasing, and the need for efficient mechanisms of XML data
management is vital. Many XML storage models have been proposed
for storing XML DTD-independent documents in relational database
systems. Benchmarking is the best way to highlight pros and cons of
different approaches. In this study, we use a common benchmarking
scheme, known as XMark to compare the most cited and newly
proposed DTD-independent methods in terms of logical reads,
physical I/O, CPU time and duration. We show the effect of Label
Path, extracting values and storing in another table and type of join
needed for each method-s query answering.
