Spatio-temporal join operators are essential to the management of spatio-temporal data such as moving objects. For example, the join operators are parts of processing to analyze movement of objects and search similar patterns of moving objects. Various studies on spatio-temporal join queries in outdoor space have been done. Recently with advance of indoor positioning techniques, location based services are required in indoor space as well as outdoor space. Nevertheless there is no one about processing of spatio-temporal join query in indoor space. In this paper, we introduce continuous spatio-temporal self-join queries in indoor space and propose a method of processing of the join queries over stream data of moving objects. The continuous spatio-temporal self-join query is to update the joined result set satisfying spatio-temporal predicates continuously. We assume that positions of moving objects are represented by symbols such as a room or corridor. This paper proposes a data structure, called Candidate Pairs Buffer, to filter and maintain massive stream data efficiently and we also investigate performance of proposed method in experimental study.

In the past few years, the research of sensor networks is forced dramatically. Specially, while the research for maintaining the power of a sensor is focused, we are also concerned nth query processing related with the optimization of multiple continuous queries for decreasing in unnecessary energy consumption of sensor networks. We present the fragmentation algorithm to solve the redundancy problem in multiple continuous queries that increases in the count or the amount of transmitting data in sensor networks. The fragmentation algorithm splits one query into more than two queries using the query index (QR-4ree) in order to reduce the redundant query region between a newly created query and the existing queries. The R*-tree should be reorganized to the QR-tree right to the structure suggested. In the result, we preserve 20 percentage of the total energy in the sensor networks.

In general, there can be many reusable intermediate results due to the overlapped windows and periodic execution intervals among Multiple Continuous Queries (MCQ) on data streams. In this regard, we propose an efficient greedy algorithm for a global query plan construction, called GAGPC. GAGPC first decides an execution cycle and finds the maximal Set(s) of Related execution Points (SRP). Next, GAGPC constructs a global execution plan to make MCQ share common join-fragments with the highest benefit in each SRP. The algorithm suggests that the best plan of the same continuous queries may be different according to not only the existence of common expressions, but the size of overlapped windows related to them. It also reflects to reuse not only the whole but partial intermediate results unlike previous work. Finally, we show experimental results for the validation of GAGPC.

Aggregation join queries are an important class of queries over data streams. These queries involve both join and aggregation operations, with window-based joins followed by an aggregation on the join output. All existing research address join query optimization and aggregation query optimization as separate problems. We observe that, by putting them within the same scope of query optimization, more efficient query execution plans are possible through more versatile query transformations. The enabling idea is to perform aggregation before join so that the join execution time may be reduced. There has been some research done on such query transformations in relational databases, but none has been done in data streams. Doing it in data streams brings new challenges due to the incremental and continuous arrival of tuples. These challenges are addressed in this paper. Specifically, we first present a query processing model geared to facilitate query transformations and propose a query transformation rule specialized to work with streams. The rule is simple and yet covers all possible cases of transformation. Then we present a generic query processing algorithm that works with all alternative query execution plans possible with the transformation, and develop the cost formulas of the query execution plans. Based on the processing algorithm, we validate the rule theoretically by proving the equivalence of query execution plans. Finally, through extensive experiments, we validate the cost formulas and study the performances of alternative query execution plans.

In this study, we propose an efficient method for monitoring continuous top-k queries. In contrast to the conventional top-k queries, the presented top-k query considers both spatial and non-spatial attributes. We proposed a novel main-memory based grid access method, called Bit-Vector Grid Index (BVGI). The proposed method quickly identifies whether the moving objects are included in some of the grid cell by encoding a non-spatial attribute value of the moving object to bit-vector. Experimental simulations demonstrate that the proposed method is several times faster than the previous method and uses considerably less memory.

Skyline queries have recently received considerable attention in the searching services. The skyline contains interesting objects that are not dominated by any other objects on all dimensions. Many related works have processed a skyline on static data or on moving objects in Euclidean space. However, this paper assumes that the point of a skyline query continuously moves in road networks. We propose a new method that efficiently processes continuous skyline queries in road networks through pre-computed shortest range data of objects. Our experiments show that the proposed method is about 100 times faster than previous methods in terms of query processing time.

RFID 미들웨어에서 처리하는 데이터는 스트림 데이터로써 질의색인 기법을 사용하면 효과적이다. 질의색인에서는 RFID 미들웨어의 표준 질의 인터페이스인 ECSpec 이 데이터가 되고, 리더가 태그를 인식하면서 발생하는 태그 이벤트는 질의 색인의 점 칠의가 된다. 질의색인의 데이터인 EXSpec 은 태그 및 리더에 대한 수집 조건과 결과집합의 보고 주기를 포함한다. 이때, 태그 이벤트가 발생할 때마다 점 질의를 즉시 수행하는 것보다 보고 주기까지 지연하고 수집된 질의 집합에서 연속되는 태그 이벤트를 영역 질의로 수행하면 질의 수행 횟수를 줄일 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 일정기간 동안의 연속된 태그 이벤트를 영역 연속 질의(a range continuous query)로 처리하기 위한 큐의 구성 방안과 태그 이벤트 집합으로부터 영역질의를 구성하기 위한 자료구조 및 알고리즘을 제안한다.

Most of works for skyline queries have focused on static data objects. With the advance in mobile applications, however, the need of continuous skyline queries for moving objects has been increasing. To process continuous skyline queries, the 4-phased decision method of skyline regions has been proposed recently. However, it is not feasible for a large number of data because of the high cost of computing skyline regions. To solve this problem, this paper first provides a theoretical analysis of the 4-phased decision method. Then we propose a progressive decision method of skyline regions for the 4-phased decision method, which consists of a distance-based pruning and an extent shrinking of region decision lines. The proposed method can efficiently reduce the cost of the decision of skyline region in the 4-phased decision method. This paper also presents the experimental results to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Various problems arise as applications using locations increase. In order to solve this problem, related works are being conducted to protect the location of users. A fundamental reason for this problem is that users must provide their location information to the service provider (server) to receive the service. To improve these problems, there are works such as generating cloaking regions or generating dummies around them. However, if a user periodically asks the server for queries, the user's trajectory may be exposed by time zone. To improve this problem, in this paper, we propose a k-Anonymity Trajectory (k-ATY) technique that can improve the exposure probability of the trajectory even if the user requests continuous queries. Experimental results demonstrated the superiority of the proposed technique.

As the variant of skyline query processing, reverse skyline Queries have been studied. However, the existing methods for processing reverse skyline Queries have the limitation of service domains and spend high costs to provide various location-based services. In this paper, we propose a new reverse skyline Query processing method that efficiently processes a query with the objects in metric spaces. In addition, the proposed method also processes continuous reverse skyline queries efficiently. In order to show the superiority of the proposed scheme, we compare it with the previous reverse skyline 벼ery processing scheme in various environments. As a result, the proposed method achieves better performance than the existing method.
