Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) In this paper,we propose a gererator for a high-performance and light-weight XQuery processor.

An existing XQuery processor creates a document tree and interprets it and queries. Once a processor has been developed, it can process any queries. It is known as a problem that a processor needs large amount of memory and processing time because of a large document tree. A lazy XML parser can decrease amount of memory, but it needs still a lots of memory, since it stores internal data structure instead of tree nodes.

To overcome this problem, we design a compiler-type XQuery processor, which is generated from a specific query. Because it knows which nodes of a tree are acually accessed beforehand, it can save only data for them.

We also propose high-performance methods for data joining operation, which compares different parts of a tree. We use a hash method for data joining with equivalent comparison and a binary search method for numerical order comparison.

We implemented an XQuery processor based on our methods and compared the processor with SAXON. The processor we designed and implemented runs about 150 times faster with 1/5 memory usage for joining operations than SAXON, and about eight times faster with 1/7 memory usage for other queries in the best case.
