Like HTML, many XML documents are resident on native file systems. Since XML data is irregular and verbose, the disk space and the network bandwidth are wasted. To overcome the ve...
In this paper, we formalize the novel concept of Constrained Reverse k-Nearest Neighbor (CRkNN) search on mobile objects (clients) performed at a central server. The CRkNN query c...
Given an object q, modeled by a multidimensional point, a reverse nearest neighbors (RNN) query returns the set of objects in the database that have q as their nearest neighbor. I...
Given a multidimensional point q, a reverse k nearest neighbor (RkNN) query retrieves all the data points that have q as one of their k nearest neighbors. Existing methods for proc...
