Nearest neighbor (NN) queries have been extended from Euclidean spaces to road networks. Existing approaches are either based on Dijkstra-like network expansion or NN/distance prec...
We present the Priority R-tree, or PR-tree, which is the first R-tree variant that always answers a window query using O((N/B)1-1/d + T/B) I/Os, where N is the number of ddimensio...

Equi-depth histograms represent a fundamental synopsis widely used in both database and data stream applications, as they provide the cornerstone of many techniques such as query ...
Nearest neighbor (NN) search in high dimensional space is an important problem in many applications. Ideally, a practical solution (i) should be implementable in a relational data...
Most relational query optimizers make use of information about the costs of accessing tuples and data structures on various storage devices. This information can at times be off b...
