Visual SQL-X: A Graphical Tool for Producing XML Documents from Relational Databases
Renzo Orsini, Massimo Pagotto · ARCA (Università Ca' Foscari Venezia) · 2001
The Visual SQL-X system is presented to generate arbitrarily complex XML documents from a graphical query on a relational database. The query describes the structure of the resulting document through a tree-like representation of its structure. The system generates the XML document through the synthesis of a SQL query and a “summarization” algorithm on the resulting table.
