Page ordering is to define the order of pages in one-dimensional storage for storing two-dimensional spatial data to reduce the number of disk seeks. Previous works relating to pag...
Modern database applications including computeraided design (CAD), medical imaging, or molecular biology impose new requirements on spatial query processing. Particular problems a...
This paper uses a knowledge-based approach to querying heterogeneous spatial databases based on an ontology and conceptual and attribute similarities. The ontology, which may be in...
Abstract. We present a cost-based adaptive clustering method to improve average performance of spatial queries (intersection, containment, enclosure queries) over large collections...
Similarity retrieval mechanisms should utilize generalized quadratic form distance functions as well as the Euclidean distance function since ellipsoid queries parameters may vary...
