Abstract. Data storage systems are being called on to manage continuous media data types, such as digital audio and video. There is a demand by applications for \constrained-latenc...
The management and query processing of one dimensional intervals is a special case of extended object handling. One dimensional intervals play an important role in temporal databa...
An important problem for many location-based applications is the continuous evaluation of proximity relations among moving objects. These relations express whether a given set of ...
We propose a general framework to index very large datasets of spatial data in a distributed system. Our proposal is built on the recently proposed Scalable Distributed Rtree (SD-...
Despite various interoperability recommendations, heterogeneity of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) is still an issue. This led to an increasing need for a data integration sy...
