Lately the advances in centralized database management systems show a trend towards supporting rank-aware query operators, like top-k, that enable users to retrieve only the most ...
Traditional duplicate elimination techniques are not applicable to many data stream applications. In general, precisely eliminating duplicates in an unbounded data stream is not f...
Many analysis and monitoring applications require the repeated execution of expensive modeling functions over streams of rapidly changing data. These applications can often be exp...
This paper proposes a generic framework for monitoring continuous spatial queries over moving objects. The framework distinguishes itself from existing work by being the first to ...
Given a set of objects P and a query point q, a k nearest neighbor (k-NN) query retrieves the k objects in P that lie closest to q. Even though the problem is well-studied for sta...
