Index structures are designed to optimize search performance, while at the same time supporting efficient data updates. Although not explicit, existing index structures are typica...
?Past R-tree studies have focused on the number of nodes visited as a metric of query performance. Since database systems usually include a buffering mechanism, we propose that the...
The development of areas such as remote and airborne sensing, location based services, and geosensor networks enables the collection of large volumes of spatial data. These datase...
Capturing the context of a user's query from the previous queries and clicks in the same session may help understand the user's information need. A context-aware approac...
Abstract Existing spatiotemporal indexes suffer from either large update cost or poor query performance, except for the Bx -tree (the state-of-the-art), which consists of multiple ...
