CS 542 - Student Course Projects at WPI -- Fall 2001
Here you find the description of each of the on-going
group projects in CS542.
Teams are encouraged to exchange tools,
advice, and possibly even some code across different groups
in order to achieve overall better quality final project results.

*
Dynamic Clustering of MultiDimensional Data Sets
*
A research and research-based implementation project that
dynamically rebuilds the cluster hierarchy in the database
system whenever there is a need to do so. This could be
due to changes on the data, such as addition or removal
of data tuples, or it could be due to explicit user hints
about the utility of the current cluster tree or user-perceived
similiarity or distance between two current clusters.

X-Extractor: A Web Extraction Tool from
relational data sources.
*
Implementation-based Research Project.
X-Extractor is a Web Extraction Tool that
retrieves data from remote relational data sources
using an Xquery query mechanism
and organizes the information into an XML information resource
for the user to access. Ideally, the user should be able
to also enter further queries on this virtual XML repository
via some forms-based interface and refine the existing
query or enter new queries that again are processed against
the relational data.

*
XML Evolution Tool as extension of the Clock System.
*
This XML Evolution Tool will allow for the evolution
of XML schemata as well as associated XML documents
so to keep those two in synch. This XET tool is done
as an extension of the Clock system, which currently
manages XML documents and DTDs using relational
database technology, namely, Oracle 8i. Performance
studies between this tool and a similar tool being
developed at WPI using an object-oriented database
(JAVA object server) will be attempted as well.

*
X-Loader: A Flexible XML to Relational Database Loader
*
A research and research-based implementation project.
The X-Loader is a tool for the loading
of XML to Relational Databases
based on Various XQuery Mapping Strategies.
X-Loader will be able to load arbitrary DTDs and
associated XML documents into a relational database.
The schema of the relational database will be
determined dynamically based on the chosen data
mapping used for loading. Possible mappings supported
by X-Loader will need to be expressed in Xquery.

*
XML Nesting Validation for Update Transaction
*
Implementation-based Research Project. This tool will
help to optimize the performance of update transactions
on XML to be executed on the XML data loaded in
a relational data server. Techniques used will be to defer
the constraint checking and at the same time to analyze
deferred constraints so to find a more efficient
constraint enforcement strategy.

*
Continuous Query Evaluation System Over Relational Data.
*
This system is to execute continous queries over
some relational data, utilizing a relational query engine
such as oracle as query executor for now.

*
Oracle Memory Monitor.
*
Implementation-based Research Project that
implements a software application that monitors
and possibly tunes Oracle databases. This tool
is intended for database administrators and
those interested in database performance.
