Constructing and Querying Peer-to-Peer Warehouses of XML Resources
Abstract
We present KadoP, a distributed infrastructure for warehousing XML resources in a peer-to-peer framework. KadoP allows users to build a shared, distributed repository of resources such as XML documents, semantic information about such documents, Web services, and collections of such items. KadoP2P builds on distributed hash tables as a peer communication layer, and ActiveXML as a model for constructing and querying the resources in the peer network. We describe KadoP's data model, query language, and query processing paradigm.
