Abstract

The Document Management System(DMS) is a system which retrieves and manages library information efficiently. Since DMS manages the information using only one table, it does not need to provide join and view operations that spend high cost in traditional DBMS. In addtion, DMS requires new operations because of their property. The operation has not been supported in existing DBMSs. In this paper we define a data language which represents the structure definition and process of data on the DMS. Especially we define Ranking and Proximity operation which is needed in Document Retrieval. We also design and implement a query processor to process the query constructed with the data language. When the existing query processors of relational DBMS are used as a query processor of DMS, they degrade the whole system performance. The proposed query processor not only overcomes such a problem but also supports new operation which is needed in DMS.
