Efficient XML and RDF data management

The development of Web technologies has led to a strong increase in the number and complexity of the applications which represent their data in Web formats, among which XML (for structured documents) and RDF (for Semantic Web data) are the most prominent. Leo has carried on research on algorithms and systems for efficiently processing expressive queries on such Web data formats. We have considered the efficient management of XML and RDF data, both for query evaluation and for efficiently applying updates, possibly in concurrence with queries.
