隨著網路的日漸普及，網路的使用人口日益加增，當人們在選擇發表資訊的媒介時，越來越多的人考慮以網頁的型式發表。然而，網路管理者於儲存網頁資料時，限於記憶體空間以及時效性等因素，必需隨時執行資料更新。為了能完整保存資料的歷史沿革，並且兼顧記憶空間的有效利用，網頁資料倉儲(Web warehousing)的概念便應運而生。網頁資料倉儲的功能，主要在儲存網頁資料的演進，進而針對所存的資料加以分析。而其中，如何有效地儲存並查詢歷史性資料則為一項重要的議題。
近年來相關的研究主要圍繞在如何以Edit Script儲存各個版本資料間的差異，其中可略分為時序漸進式，以及索引編排式。時序漸進式，如RCS、SCCS等，其主要的概念是以Edit Script逐次編寫各相鄰歷史版本之間的差異；而索引編排式的作法則將版本資訊加以分類，使得舊版本在存取時更有效率，如DNN等。然而這些方法共同的缺點在於取得某個版本的資料皆需要花費龐大的計算量。
故此，本研究主要沿續此一大方向，首先提出以二進制定址二元樹的編碼方式編寫Edit Script，以增加Edit Script的效率。二進制定址二元樹的主要精神在於，每一個節點皆有一固定之Binary ID，且此ID即為其固定的邏輯位址，因此能大為增加取得特定版本資料的效率。本研究繼而針對網頁資料倉儲一般的歷史資料查詢，歸納出五類常見的查詢種類，並根據這五類查詢提出實作時所需的運算子，並據以編寫對應的演算法。最後，本研究架構出一個實驗系統以實作本文所提出的運算子及演算法，以實際查詢所需資料。

With the increasingly widespread use and users of Internet, more and more people tend to publish their information as Web pages. However, while storing these information, Web masters have to replace information with newer one. In order to keep full track of historical data and to manage storage space efficiently at the same time, the idea of Web Warehousing was proposed. The main function of a Web Warehouse is to store the complete evolution of web pages, then to analyze the data stored in it. Among the related research fields, effective historical-data storage is an important issue.
Researchers have focused on storing changes between versions with Edit Script. Among them are research topics such as RCS, SCCS, DNN, etc. They either store the changes between consecutive versions in Edit Script, or divide version information into groups. The drawback in common is that retrieving a specific version of data requires a lot of computation.
Hence, following this trend, we first proposed an Edit Script encoding model using Binary-Code-Addressing Binary Tree to make the computation more effective. The main idea of Binary-Code-Addressing Binary Tree is that every node in the tree has a fixed Binary ID, and this ID is then the logical address of this node. We concluded five main categories of common queries on historical data in Web warehouses. Then we proposed operators and syntax for these queries, and the required algorithm. Finally, we constructed an experiment system to implement the operators and algorithm, to really use these operators and syntax on queries.
