The Application Design Patterns for Utilizing XMLDB

XML database, which enables to store and reuse XML data, is spreading gradually. The information about XQuery, database design and programming is also increasing. However, the information about the application design is very few while users can use various programming languages and libraries. In this paper, after listing XML unique processing and executing the performance test using patent inquiry applications, some application design patterns and selecting points which utilize XMLDB characteristics are proposed.
