Information retrieval is one of the most challenging areas in which the ontology technology is effectively used. Among them image retrieval using the image meta data and ontology is the one that can substitute the keyword-based image retrieval. In the paper, the retrieval of visual media such as the art image and photo picture is handled. It is assumed that there are more than one service providers of the visual media and also there is one central service broker that mediates the user's query. Given the user's query the first step that must be done in the service broker is to get the list of candidate service providers that fit the query. This is done by defining various ontologies such as the service ontology and matching the query against the ontology and providers. A novel matching method based on the ASN.1. The experiment shows that the method is more effective than existing tree-based and interval-based methods. Ontology merging issue is also handled that can happen when the service providers register their service into the service broker. An effective method is also proposed.

For tracing tag locations, a trajectories should be modeled and indexed in radio frequency identification (RFID) systems. The trajectory of a tag can be represented as a line that connects two spatiotemporal locations captured when the tag enters and leaves the vicinity of a reader. If a tag enters but does not leave a reader, its trajectory is represented only as a point captured at entry and we should extend the region of a query to find the tag that remains in a reader. In this paper, we propose an interval data model of tag's trajectory in order to solve the problem. For the interval data model. we propose a new index scheme called the IR-tree(Interval R-tree) and algorithms of insert and split for processing query efficiently. We also evaluate the performance of the proposed index scheme and compare it with the previous indexes.

Techniques for processing continuous queries are required to developing the various types of application services (monitoring services) in ubiquitous environment where the real-time data acquisition from a lot of sensors, analysis, and processing are required. In the previous works of the continuous queries, they have represented all of the continuous queries as the interval queries or region queries, and proposed some methods for processing theses queries. The types of continuous queries, however, are very various, and could be presented by combining the attribute conditions, spatial conditions, and temporal conditions. In this paper, I have classify the types of continuous queries, and have proposed the continuous query model which could be presented by combining those conditions. The contributions of this paper include that it proposes the query model representing the continuous queries and suggests future research directions.

Streaming data processing is an area of interest with much research under way. There has been increasing attention on the demands for efficient processing of streaming data produced in the application areas such as monitoring and sensor network. We have developed a continuous query processing system for streaming data and evaluated its performance in this paper. XML, the standard for data exchange on the web, is used as the model for the streaming data and the XQuery appended with a time interval is adopted as the query language for expressing con-tinuous queries. In the proposed system, the result is produced through background processing and materialized for reute in subsequent query processing. Through a detailed set of performance experiments, we shoed the effectiveness of the proposed system.

EPCglobal은 RFID와 관련된 다양한 분야의 표준화를 주도하고 있으며 응용 표준으로써 Tag 정보의 운용을 위한 미들웨어 표준인 ALE Specification을 제시하였다. ALE의 ECSpec은 애플리케이션이 미들웨어에 등록하는 이벤트 필터링을 위한 스펙으로써 일정 시간동안 반복적으로 수행되는 연속 질의와 유사한 특성을 가진다. ECSpec을 연속질의로 변환할 때 해당질의의 WHERE절이 가지는 Predicate는 매우 긴 길이를 가지는 Long Interval이 된다. 이러한 특성은 기존의 질의 색인들의 삽입과 검색 성능을 저하시키는 문제점을 가진다. 이 논문에서는 ECSpec을 연속 질의의 형태로 변환하고 해당 질의가 기지는 Predicate인 2D Interval의 특성을 반영한 새로운 질의 색인 구조로써 TLC-Index를 제안한다. 색인 구조는 그리드 방식의 큰 크기를 가지는 셀 분할 구조와 선분 모양의 가상 분할 구조를 병행하는 하이브리드 구조이다. 색인에서 Long Interval의 정의는 셀 분할 구조의 길이보다. 크거나 같은 길이를 가지는 interval이다. 제안하는 색인은 Long Interval을 큰 크기를 가지는 셀 분할 구조로 분할 삽입함으로써 저장 공간의 소모를 줄이고 삽입 성능을 향상시킨다. 또한 Short Interval들을 짧은 길이를 가지는 가상 분할 구조들로 분할 삽입함으로써 그리드 방식이 가질 수 있는 부분적 겹침을 제거하여 검색 성능을 향상시킨다.

Recently, the operator modules to control external devices are concerned about automatic management system to process continuously changed signals. These signals are the stream data of which characteristics are several numbers. a short report interval and asynchronous report time. It is necessary that the system brings about high accuracy and real time process for stream data. The typical queries of these systems consist of the current query to search the latest signal value, the snapshot query at a past time, the sliding window query from a past time to current. In this paper, we propose the efficient method to manage the above signals by using a file structured database in small-size operating systems. We also propose a query model to accommodate various queries including the sliding window query. The file database in the QNX adopts a delta version and a shared memory buffering method for the resource limit of a small storage and a low computing power.

센서 네트워크 환경에서 스트림 데이터를 모니터링 하기 위해서는 스트림 데이터에 대한 연속적인 질의들을 효과적으로 처리하는 것이 필요하다. 이러한 연속적인 질의를 빠르게 검색하고 처리하기 위하여 낮은 저장 비용과 빠른 탐색 성능을 가진 질의 색인 기법이 많이 활용되고 있다. 기존 연구들은 사전에 삽입될 Interval 을 알고 트리를 구성하므로 동적인 삽입, 삭제가 불가능하거나 삽입된 Interval 수와 Interval 의 범위에 따라 높은 저장 비용이나 상대적으로 느린 탐색 속도를 보인다. 따라서 이 논문에서는 연속적인 질의 처리를 효율적으로 하기 위하여 Hashed Multiple Lists 를 제안한다. 제안된 기법은 빠른 선형 탐색 성능과 낮은 저장 비용을 요구하며 삽입, 삭제가 용이하고 다양한 범위를 표현할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 제안된 색인 기법은 센서 네트워크를 응용한 시스템과 상황 인식 시스템 등에서 연속적인 질의를 처리하는데 활용할 수 있다.

For tracing tag locations, a trajectories should be modeled and indexed in radio frequency identification (RFID) systems. The trajectory of a tag can be represented as a line that connects two spatiotemporal locations captured when the tag enters and leaves the vicinity of a reader. If a tag enters but does not leave a reader, its trajectory is represented only as a point captured at entry. Because the information that the tag stays in the reader is missing from the trajectory represented only as a point, we should extend the region of a query to find the tag that remains in a reader. In this paper, we propose an interval data model of tag's trajectory in order to solve the problem. Trajectories of tags are represented as two kinds of intervals; dynamic intervals which are time-dependent lines and static intervals which are fixed lines. We also show that the interval data model has better performance than others with a cost model

In this paper, we propose a content-based audio genre classification algorithm that automatically classifies the query audio into five genres such as Classic, Hiphop, Jazz, Rock, Speech using digital sign processing approach. From the 20 seconds query audio file, the audio signal is segmented into 23ms frame with non-overlapped hamming window and 54 dimensional feature vectors, including Spectral Centroid, Rolloff, Flux, LPC, MFCC, is extracted from each query audio. For the classification algorithm, k-NN, Gaussian, GMM classifier is used. In order to choose optimum features from the 54 dimension feature vectors, SFS(Sequential Forward Selection) method is applied to draw 10 dimension optimum features and these are used for the genre classification algorithm. From the experimental result, we can verify the superior performance of the proposed method that provides near 90% success rate for the genre classification which means 10%∼20% improvements over the previous methods. For the case of actual user system environment, feature vector is extracted from the random interval of the query audio and it shows overall 80% success rate except extreme cases of beginning and ending portion of the query audio file.

Stream data need a efficient data management with high reliability and real time processing. The characteristics of these data are a large volume, a short report interval and asynchronous report time. The typical queries of these systems consist of the current query to search the latest signal value, the snapshot query to search the signal value of a past time, the historical query to search the signal value of a past time to current. This paper proposes the efficient method to manage the above signals by using a file structured database in QNX operating systems. The query model to accommodate various query for stream data is proposed. The proposed methods are applied to reactive protection system to verify their usefulness. The COM(Cabinet Operator Module) based on the QNX employs file database that adopts a delta version and a buffering method for the resource limit of a small storage and a low computing power.
