Abstract-- When dealing with massive quantities of data, topk queries are a powerful technique for returning only the k most relevant tuples for inspection, based on a scoring func...
Georeferenced information is growing every day, and geographical information systems are becoming crucial in many decision processes. As a consequence, extracting knowledge from G...
Moving object databases store and process data for objects that change location frequently. Materialized views maintained over time must be updated to reflect changes due to the m...
One important class of spatial database queries is the class of topological queries, that is, queries invariant under homeomorphisms. Westudy topological queries expressible in th...
Processing spatial joins efficiently is crucial to rendering the spatial data analysis process feasible. As pointed out in many works, the exact intersection test of two spatial ob...
