XML Views of Relational Databases: Semantics and Update Problems

XML是在Internet上表示、发布和交换数据的标准，关系数据库是数据管理的主导技术。更新关系数据上的XML视图是将这两种技术结合起来为基于Internet的应用程序提供服务的基础。澳大利亚一直是发展和应用互联网技术的领先国家。该项目的理论成果将有助于数据库和网络研究社区的发展，并使我们成为该研究领域的国际领先集团。这些技术成果将帮助澳大利亚的组织有效和高效地在互联网上开展电子商务。

XML is the standard for representing, publishing and exchanging data over the Internet and relational database is the dominant technology for data management. Updating XML views over relational data is fundamental to bring these two technologies together to serve Internet-based applications. Australia has been a leading country in both developing and applying internet technologies. The theoretic outcomes of this project will contribute to the advance in database and web research communities and establish us as an internationally leading group in this research area. The technological outcomes will help organisations in Australia effectively and efficiently conduct e-Business on the Internet.
