We propose a distributed data structure for maintaining spatial data sets on message-passing, distributed memory machines. The data structure is based on orthogonal bisection tree...
In this paper, we consider various spatial relationships that are of general interest in pictorial database systems. We present a set of rules that allow us to deduce new relation...
Abstract: In the automotive and aerospace industry, millions of technical documents are generated during the development of complex engineering products. Particularly, the universa...
We propose a general framework to index very large datasets of spatial data in a distributed system. Our proposal is built on the recently proposed Scalable Distributed Rtree (SD-...
Abstract. Both Geographic Information Systems and Information Retrieval have been very active research fields in the last decades. Lately, a new research field called Geographic In...
