An Indexing Scheme for Predicting Future-time Positions of Moving Objects with Frequently Varying Velocities  

Lim, Sung-Chae (동덕여자대학교 컴퓨터학과)
Abstract
With the advances in the information technology and mobile communications, we now face increasing demands for various services based on both of position tracking of moving objects and their efficient index scheme. Accordingly, the $TPR^*$-tree, which were proposed for efficiently tracking moving objects and predicting their positions in the future time, has drawn much intention. As the $TPR^*$-tree came from the R-tree that is suitable for indexing static objects, it does not support cheap update costs. Therefore, it seems to be very costly to index moving objects if there are frequent occurrences of node updates caused by continuously changing velocities and positions. If some moving objects with high velocities have node updates, in particular, then the $TPR^*$-tree may suffer from many unnecessary updates in the wide range of tree regions. To avoid such a problem, we propose a method that can keep fast-moving objects in the child nodes of the root node, thereby saving node update costs in the $TPR^*$-tree. To show our performance advantages and retaining $TPR^*$-tree features, we performed some performance experiments using a simulation technique.
