XML Views over Relational DBs Database (Oracle) Xpath/ Xquery mapping XML view
Area 1: ER-2-XML • Convert ER Schemas to XML Schemas • Ideas : • Extend ER Model to capture more semantics • Map extended ER Model into an XML schema • Retrieve data from database • Return result in XML • Status: initial tool implemented by prior MQP team and available for download. • Paper : published in XSym’04.
Area 2: Updating XML Views of Relational Databases • CoT defines a specific XML View over RDB • Tasks : • Study how to translate updates specified over such views • Develop simple translations for insert, delete and modify\ • Status: Prior MQP team has worked on this, more cases can be added.

Project Topics in a Nutshell: • Databases and Visualization: • Visualization-Driven Data Caching • Prefetching based on User Access Patterns • Stream Monitoring Systems: • Query Engine of Data Streams • Monitoring Applications: Motion • Distributed Data Sources: • EVE : Data Warehousing over Distributed Data Sources • TOTAL-ETL : Distributed Extract Transform Load Tools • Web Information Systems: • RAINBOW : XML to Relational Database Management • MASS : Native XQuery Processing System
CAPE : Engine for Querying and Monitoring Streaming Data Example of Stream Data Applications: • Market Analysis • Streams of Stock Exchange Data • Critical Care • Streams of Vital Sign Measurements • Physical Plant Monitoring • Streams of Environmental Readings
Query Query Query Databases Upside Down data static data data Standing queries data Query data data streams of data one-time queries data
MQP Projects in CAPE • Develop new services for core engine: • Scheduler of query flow graphs • Data shedder under fluctuating loads • Distributed query processing • Develop stream applications • e.g.: TRAFFIC, SENSORS, HEALTH, … • Load real data streams : traffic simulation • Develop useful queries, like “average density in city region X over last 5 minute window” • Provide usable GUI and visual result for monitoring
TotalETL MQP Projects • General: Data warehousing and collaboration workflow management tool suites • Current MQP Project: Developed a collaboration server, complete with session manager, project manager, job scheduler, and project repository. • Proposed MQP Projects: • Extend collaboration server to support scalable project execution by utilizing cluster of machines, java concurrent thread libraries for parallel project flows, better scheduling. • Develop client (GUI) that enables users to collaborative develop ‘projects’, as well as administrator GUI to monitor status of project executions.
