Abstract
A system and methodology for processing of path based queries is described. In one embodiment, a method for processing a path based query requesting data from a markup language document comprises steps of: parsing the path based query requesting data to generate a query tree corresponding to the path based query; identifying all paths which may be utilized for obtaining data requested by the path based query from the markup language document; creating a transformed query tree to represent all identified paths; generating a query plan for obtaining data requested by the path based query based on the transformed query tree; and executing the query plan to obtain and return the data requested by the path based query.
