AbstractThe information retrieval system plays a major role in retrieving the relevant information. The attempt to improve the new technique for this retrieving has been proposed and developed. Using of XML file is a proposed model to make its retrieval differs from the plain text document retrieval in traditional IR. The eXtensible Markup Language (XML) allows the authors to give the information of context within tags in markup language as its structure. The document is allowed to retrieve and query in the its logical structure. By the way, the performance of this retrieval depends on the methodology to manage the XML document. The relational database management system is selected to support the XML information retrieval. The relational database system offers some advantages as the standard feature to query (SQL), the concurrency control, recovery, flexibility and extensibility. In this study, the relational database system is applied into the XML information retrieval system. In this study, the relational database is a selected engine for storing and managing XML documents. The implicit structure of XML document is used to create the explicit structure as the relational schema in database system. This study is proposed the strategy to convert the XML document’s structure to be the relational schema. Moreover, the decomposing, querying and composing XML to/from database have been provided to make this system can be provided completely functions of retrieval system.
