The wide spread use of cellular phones, handheld devices, and GPS-like technology enables location-aware environments where virtually all objects are aware of their locations. Loca...
Scientific experiments produce large volumes of data represented as complex objects that describe independent events such as particle collisions. Scientific analyses can be express...
Path traversals have been recognized as one of the strengths of object-oriented query processing as object retrieval can be carried out through pointer navigation. Apart from path...
Materialized views can provide massive improvements in query processing time, especially for aggregation queries over large tables. To realize this potential, the query optimizer ...
Abstract. In moving object databases, object locations in some multidimensional space depend on time. Previous work focuses mainly on moving object modeling (e.g., using ADTs, temp...
