최근 이동통신 및 GPS 기술의 발달로 위치기반서비스 요구가 점점 증가하고 있고, 대용량의 위치데이터가 저장되는 위치기반서비스의 구현을 위한 이동체외 저장 및 검색에 관한 연구가 활발하다. 이동체의 위치 정보를 점으로 모델링하여 색인 할 경우 KDB-Tree의 성능이 우수하다. 그러나 KDB-Tree는 시공간에서의 이동체 위치데이터 색인을 고려할 경우 시간 도메인의 특성으로 인해 성능 저하의 문제를 발생시킨다. 본 논문에서는 이동체 위치데이터의 색인을 위한 KDB-Tree의 사용에서 시간 도메인의 특성을 반영한 분할 도메인 선정 방법과 분할 정책을 제시한다. 새로운 분할 정책은 색인의 공간활용도를 높이고 색인의 크기를 작게 하여 검색의 성능을 높인 최근 시간 분할 기법과 LD(Last Division) 분할 정책이다. 본 논문에서는 KDB-Tree의 변경된 분할 정책을 구현하고 성능평가론 수행한다. 이 성능 평가 실험을 통해서 변경된 분할 정책을 사용한 KDB-Tree에서 공간활용도가 높고 검색 성능이 우수함을 보인다.

The KDB-tree is a traditional indexing scheme for retrieving multidimensional data. Much research for KDB-tree family frequently addresses the low storage utilization and insufficient retrieval performance as their two bottlenecks. The bottlenecks occur due to a number of unnecessary splits caused by data insertion orders and data skewness. In this paper, we propose a novel index structure, called as $KDB_{CS}^+$-tree, to process skewed data efficiently and improve the retrieval performance. The $KDB_{CS}^+$-tree increases the number of fan-outs by exploiting bit-vectors for representing splitting information and pointer elimination. It also improves the storage utilization by representing entries as a hierarchical structure in each internal node.

Moving object databases manage a large amount of past location data which are accumulated as the time goes. To retrieve fast the past location of moving objects, we need index structures which consider features of moving objects. The KDB-tree has a good performance in processing range queries. Although we use the KDB-tree as an index structure for moving object databases, there has an over-split problem in the spatial domain since the feature of moving object databases is to increase the time domain. Because the over-split problem reduces spatial regions in the MBR of nodes inverse proportion to the number of splits, there has a problem that the cost for processing spatial-temporal range queries is increased. In this paper, we propose the dynamic split strategy of the KDB-tree to process efficiently the spatial-temporal range queries. The dynamic split strategy uses the space priority splitting method for choosing the split domain, the recent time splitting policy for splitting a point page to maximize the space utilization, and the last division policy for splitting a region page. We compare the performance of proposed dynamic split strategy with the 3DR-tree, the MV3R-tree, and the KDB-tree. In our performance study for range queries, the number of node access in the MKDB-tree is average 30% less than compared index structures.

We propose a new cache conscious indexing structure for processing frequently updated data efficiently. Our proposed index structure is based on a KDB-Tree, one of the representative index structures based on space partitioning techniques. In this paper, we propose a data compression technique and a pointer elimination technique to increase the utilization of a cache line. To show our proposed index structure's superiority, we compare our index structure with variants of the CR-tree(e.g. the FF CR-tree and the SE CR-tree) in a variety of environments. As a result, our experimental results show that the proposed index structure achieves about 85%, 97%, and 86% performance improvements over the existing index structures in terms of insertion, update and cache-utilization, respectively.

Recently, with the rapid development of location-based techniques, index structures to efficiently manage moving objects have been required. In this paper, we propose a new spatio-temporal index structure that supports a future position retrieval and minimizes a update cost. The proposed index structure combines an assistant index structure that directly accesses current positions of moving objects with KDB-tree that is a space partitioning access method. The internal node in our proposed index structure keeps time parameters in order to support the future position retrieval and to minimize a update cost. Moreover, we propose new update and split methods to maximize the space utilization and the search performance. We perform various experiments to show that our proposed index structure outperforms the existing index structure.

The I/O performance for spatial queries is extremely important since the handling of huge amount of multidimensional data is required in spatial databases for geographic information systems. Therefore, we describe representative spatial access methods handling complex spatial objects, z-transform B tree, KDB tree, R tree, MAX tree, to increase I/O performance. In addition, we measure the performance of spatial indexing schemes by testing against various realistic data and query sets. Results from the benchmark test indicates that MAX outperforms other indexing schemes on insertion, range query, spatial join. MAX tree is expected to use as index scheme organizing storage system of GIS in the future.

Location-Based Services(LBS) give rise to location-dependent queries of which results depend on the positions of moving objects. Because positions of moving objects change continuously, indexes of moving object must perform update operations frequently for keeping the changed position information. Existing spatial index (Grid File, R-Tree, KDB-tree etc.) proposed as index structure to search static data effectively. There are not suitable for index technique of moving object database that position data is changed continuously. In this paper, I propose a dynamic hashing index that insertion/delete costs are low. The dynamic hashing structure is that apply dynamic hashing techniques to combine a hash and a tree to a spatial index. The results of my extensive experiments show the dynamic hashing index outperforms the $R^$ $R^*$-tree and the fixed grid.

Recently, the needs of index structure which manages moving objects efficiently have been increased because of the rapid development of location-based techniques. Existing index structures frequently need updates because moving objects change continuatively their positions. That caused entire performance loss of the index structures. In this paper, we propose a new index structure called the TPKDB-tree that is a spatio-temporal index structure based on KDB-tree. Our technique optimizes update costs and reduces a search time for moving objects and reduces unnecessary updates by expressing moving objects as linear functions. Thus, the TPKDB-tree efficiently supports the searches of future positions of moving objects by considering the changes of moving objects included in the node as time-parameter. To maximize space utilization, we propose the new update and split methods. Finally, we perform various experiments to show that our approach outperforms others.
