ViteX: A Streaming XPath Processing System
Yi Chen, Susan B. Davidson, Yifeng Zheng · 2005
We present ViteX, an XPath processing system on XML streams with polynomial time complexity. ViteX uses a polynomial-space data structure to encode an exponential number of pattern matches (in the query size) which are required to process queries correctly during a single sequential scan of XML. Then ViteX computes query solutions by probing the data structure in a lazy fashion without enumerating pattern matches.
