In order to answer efficiently range queries in 2-d R-trees, first we sort queries by means of a space filling curve, then we group them together, and finally pass them for process...
Assume that a franchise plans to open k branches in a city, so that the average distance from each residential block to the closest branch is minimized. This is an instance of the ...
In this paper, we present an experimental evaluation of three color-spatial retrieval techniques -- the signaturebased technique, the partition-based algorithm and the cluster-bas...
In this paper, we formalize the novel concept of incremental reverse nearest neighbor ranking and suggest an original solution for this problem. We propose an efficient approach fo...
