  Abstract

We need to generate various kinds of XML data to evaluate XML database systems. Existing XML data generators are developed to generate XML data that are suitable for particular evaluation methods, and their functionalities are limited in terms of generating XML data. This paper introduces a new XML data generator, WeXGene, that not only improves the drawbacks of existing data generators but also adds new data generation functionalities. For generating XML data, WeXGene uses the user data files and the structure definition files, which specify SDTD(Symbolic DTD) or input parameters. The user data file is a text data file that has column data or row data. It is also possible that WeXGene generates XML data without accessing the user data file. This paper presents the design details, overall system architecture, and data generation process of WeXGene. An analytic comparison with other XML data generators is also presented.
