Abstract

시공간 데이타베이스는 현실세계의 객체에 대하여 효율적인 공간 관리와 이력 관리를 지원한다. 이러한 시공간 데이타베이스는 시간차원과 공간차원이라는 이질적 데이타 공간을 관리하여야 하는 대단히 복잡한 시스템이다. 따라서 데이타에 대한 효율적 접근 방법에 대한 연구가 필수적이며, 이는 효율적 색인 기법의 개발을 통하여 이룰 수 있다. 그러나 시공간 데이타에 대한 접근방법 연구는 거의 이루어지지 않고 있으며 극소수의 사례들마저도 공간 객체의 이력 개념을 지원하는 것이 아니라 멀티미디어 객체의 상대적 시간만을 지원하고 있다. 따라서 이 논문에서는 공간 데이타의 이력을 표현하는 시공간 데이타에 대하여 효율적으로 색인하기 위한 방안으로서 시간과 공간을 단일화된 색인 영역으로 통합하는 단일화된 시공간 색인 모델을 제시하고, 이를 기존의 R-트리를 기반으로 확장한 색인을 설계 및 구현하였으며, 아울러 다양한 유형의 시공간 연산에 대한 색인의 성능을 평가하였다.Abstract Spatiotemporal databases are able to support an efficient spatial management as well as historical management for an object in the real world. It is very complex to manage these two dimensions why there exists on difference of inborn property of temporal and spatial dimensions. Therefore an efficient access method should be studied, and it can be done by means of development of efficient indexing technology.However, there is a few related work in the research of access methods of spatiotemporal data. Also the previous works do not support the concept of history for spatial object, and only support the relative time among multimedia objects. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a unified Spatiotemporal index model as an efficient index for Spatiotemporal data. And we not only design Spatiotemporal index that has been extended to historical management facility on the basis of conventional R-tree, but also implement it. Finally we have evaluated performance of index for the various kinds of Spatiotemporal operations.
