| Summary: | An XML database system provides value to its users through the ability to get information into and out of the system easily and efficiently. Nevertheless, XML database is generally hard to design, hard to modify and hard to query.
Querying XML would require a depth understanding of the language and structure that is equal to that of SQL. Some existing methods to query XML would be using XPath and XQuery. However, for one who does not have the necessary cognizance of XML, it would be difficult to extract information from any XML documents.
Owing to this problem, an algorithm called MUSTBLEND was introduced in recent years to help people querying XML using a friendly GUI. The program would not require any prior knowledge to XML to use and it is made as a desktop application.
The algorithm provides support to process multiple conditions together on a query, one of the inability of the previously designed algorithms. The designed User Interface also improves on the User Waiting Time on their query.
To increase the usability of the system, MUSTBLEND can be implemented as a web application so that it is accessible from web browser anywhere. This paper would discuss in depth the introduction of Web Platfrom of MUSTBLEND. |
