RFID를 이용하는 물류 시스템에서 태그 객체의 위치 추적을 위해서는 태그 객체의 궤적을 모델링하고 효율적으로 검색하기 위한 색인 구성이 필수적이다. 태그 객체의 궤적은 리더의 인식 영역에 들어오고 나가는 두 점을 연결한 시공간 선분으로 표현할 수 있다. 그러나 태그 객체가 리더의 인식영역 밖으로 벗어나게 되면 태그 객체의 궤적을 표현 할 수 없으므로 위치 추적이 불가능하게 되는 문제를 가진다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 리더의 비 인식 영역에서 GPS를 이용한 태그 객체의 위치 추적을 병행할 필요가 있다. 본 논문에서는 RFID 시스템과 LBS 시스템을 연동한 환경에서 태그 궤적을 표현하기 위한 위치 추적 시스템의 모델을 제시하고. 제시된 모델에서 태그 객체의 위치 추적을 효율적으로 처리하기 위한 색인 구조를 제안한다. 제안된 색인 구조는 태그 객체의 현재 위치뿐만 아니라 과거 궤적을 효율적으로 처리하기 위한 새로운 삽입 및 분할 알고리즘을 제안하여 노드가 차지하는 영역을 최소화한다.

Various applications of LBS (Location Based Services) are being developed to provide the customized service depending on user's location with progress of wireless communication technology and miniaturization of personalized device. To effectively process an amount of vehicles' location data, LBS requires the techniques such as vehicle observation, data communication, data insertion and search, and user query processing. In this paper, we propose the historical location index, GIP-FB (Group Insertion tree with Flexible Buffer Node) and the flexible buffer node technique to adjust the cost of data insertion and search. the designed GIP+ based index employs the buffer node and the projection storage to cut the cost of insertion and search. Besides, it adjusts the cost of insertion and search by changing the number of line segments of the buffer node with user defined time interval. In the experiment, the buffer node size influences the performance of GIP-FB by changing the number of non-leaf node of the index. the proposed flexible buffer node is used to adjust the performance of the historical location index depending on the applications of LBS.

Although spatio-temporal databases have received considerable attention recently, there has been little work on processing range sum queries on the historical records of moving objects despite their importance. Since to answer range sum queries, the direct access to a huge amount of data incurs prohibitive computation cost, materialization techniques based on existing index structures are recently suggested. A simple but effective solution is to apply the materialization technique to the MVR-tree known as the most efficient structure for window queries with spatio-temporal conditions. However, the MVR-tree has a difficulty in maintaining pre-aggregated results inside its internal nodes due to cyclic paths between nodes. Aggregate structures based on other index structures such as the HR-tree and the 3DR-tree do not provide satisfactory query performance. In this paper, we propose a new indexing technique called the Adaptive Partitioned Aggregate R-Tree (APART) and query processing algorithms to efficiently process range sum queries in many situations. Experimental results show that the performance of the APART is typically above 2 times better than existing aggregate structures in a wide range of scenarios.

As developing satellite communication, the tracking range of the moving objects which move in local area is expanded to the whole world. However previous logistics management system is able to monitor freight which transporting in local area using mobile communication system. In this paper, we propose the reefer container management system that manages the location information and other related information such as temperature, humidity of container using the satellite system. The proposed system consists of three parts; data collector, satellite communication manager, reefer container information manager. And the proposed system uses the moving object index for managing the trajectory of container and tracing the location of container or vessel that is transporting the container, and supports various services such as reefer container and vessel tracking, container control and container statistics to logistic companies like shipper and forwarding agent. And the system can be increasing the quality of container transportation service to the shipper, and it makes the efficient management of reefer container to the shipping company.

Many researches are going on with regard to issues and problems related to mobile database systems, which are caused by the weak connectivity of wireless networks, the mobility and the portability of mobile clients. Mobile computing satisfies user's demands for convenience and performance to use information at any time and in any place, but it has many problems to be solved in the aspect of data management. The purpose of our study is to design Mobile Continuous Query Processing System(MCQPS) to solve problems related to database hoarding, the maintenance of shared data consistency and the optimization of logging, which are caused by the weak connectivity and disconnection of wireless networks inherent in mobile database systems under mobile client server environments. We proved the superiority of the proposed MCQPS by comparing its performance to the C I S(Client-Intercept-Slaver) model. In Addition, we experiment on proposed index structure and methodology in various methods.

최근 위치 인식 기술과 휴대 장치의 발달로 인해 이동하는 객체를 기반으로 하는 위치 기반 서비스(Location Based Service, LBS)의 관심이 점점 증가하고 있고 그에 관련된 연구들이 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 이동 객체의 응용은 빈번하게 변경되는 이동객체의 위치정보를 효과적으로 처리할 수 있는 색인구조를 필요로 한다. 위치정보를 색인하기 위해 R-tree 기반의 색인들이 제안되었다. 하지만 R-tree는 변경보다는 검색 연산에 초점이 맞추어진 색인구조이기 때문에 잦은 변경을 다루어야 하는 이동객체 환경에 적합하지 못하다. 최근 이러한 객체의 빠른 위치 변경을 지원하는 그리드 기반의 색인 구조가 제안되었다. 하지만 셀의 객체 점유율에 따라 검색 속도가 저하되는 단점은 여전히 해결되지 못하고 있다. 이러한 단점은 객체들이 특정 영역에 몰리는 경우 또는 그리드의 해상도를 잘못 지정한 경우 더욱 부각된다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 단점을 해결하기 위해 가상 셀 기반의 색인 구조를 제안한다. 데이터 페이지에 객체의 점유율을 보장하기 위해 여러 개의 인접한 셀들의 데이터를 한 데이터 페이지에 함께 저장한다. 공간 채움 곡선을 기반으로 순서화된 셀들로 셀의 인접성을 결정한다. 또한 공간 채움 곡선의 차수를 동적으로 지정하여 객체가 집중된 셀에 대해서는 셀의 단위 크기를 작게 지정한다. 뿐만 아니라 셀을 표현하기 위한 식별자를 위해 비트를 이용한 표현식을 제안하였다. 이로 인해 노드의 팬아웃을 증가시켰고, 저장공간을 절약하였다. 실험을 통해서 제안하는 색인 기법의 우수성을 증명하였다.

Recently, as the growth of the wireless Internet, PDA and HPC, the focus of research and development related with GIS(Geographic Information System) has been changed to the Real-Time Mobile GIS to service LBS. To offer LBS efficiently, there must be the Real-Time GIS platform that can deal with dynamic status of moving objects and a location index which can deal with the characteristics of location data. Location data can use the same data type(e.g., point) of GIS, but the management of location data is very different. Therefore, in this paper, we studied the Real-Time Mobile GIS using the HBR-tree to manage mass of location data efficiently. The Real-Time Mobile GIS which is developed in this paper consists of the HBR-tree and the Real-Time GIS Platform HBR-tree. we proposed in this paper, is a combined index type of the R-tree and the spatial hash Although location data are updated frequently, update operations are done within the same hash table in the HBR-tree, so it costs less than other tree-based indexes Since the HBR-tree uses the same search mechanism of the R-tree, it is possible to search location data quickly. The Real-Time GIS platform consists of a Real-Time GIS engine that is extended from a main memory database system. a middleware which can transfer spatial, aspatial data to clients and receive location data from clients, and a mobile client which operates on the mobile devices. Especially, this paper described the performance evaluation conducted with practical tests if the HBR-tree and the Real-Time GIS engine respectively.
