AbstractThe emergence of XML as a standard for representation on the Web is expected to greatly facilitate the publication of electronic data by providing a simple syntax for data that is both human and machine-readable. While XML is itself relatively simple, it is surrounded by a confusing number of XML-enabled systems by various software vendors and alphabet soup of proposals (XML-Data, XML-Schema, etc.) for XML-related Standard. Although the document and database viewpoint was, until quite recently, irreconcilable, there is now a convergence in technologies brought about by the development of XML for data on the Web and data in the database community. A constant theme is bridging the gap between logical representation of data and data modeling on the one hand and syntax and functionality of document system on other. The thesis focuses on three main XML query languages that were adopted to evaluate the database on the Web. It also demonstrates the connection between them.
