By carefully designing the database schema, Kikori-KS handles a huge number of document fragments efficiently. Kikori-KS was implemented on top of a relational XML database system developed by our group. To meet practical demands for searching relevant fragments in scholartic articles, we have developed a user-friendly interface for displaying search results. This form of query is simple yet useful because users are not required to understand XML query languages or XML schema. Kikori-KS accepts a set of keywords as a query. We present Kikori-KS, an effective and efficient XML information retrieval system for scholartic articles. XML information retrieval systems need to search document fragments relevant to queries from a set of XML documents in a digital library. In scholarly articles, such document fragments include sections, subsections and paragraphs. N2 - Identifying meaningful document fragments is a major advantage achieved by encoding documents in XML.
