In this paper, we study the evaluation of skyline queries with partially-ordered attributes. Because such attributes lack a total ordering, traditional index-based evaluation algo...
Abstract. Distributed moving object database servers are a feasible solution to the scalability problem of centralized database systems. In this paper we propose a distributed inde...
A Reverse k-Nearest-Neighbor (RkNN) query finds the objects that take the query object as one of their k nearest neighbors. In this paper we propose new solutions for evaluating R...
In this demonstration we present MAPLE, a scalable peer-to-peer Nearest Neighbor (NN) query system for mobile environments. MAPLE is designed for the efficient sharing of query re...
