Structure information contained in a structured document supports various access paths to document. In order to use structure information contained in a structured document, it is required to construct an index structural on document structures. Content indexing and structure indexing per document require high memory overhead. Therefore, processing of pure structure queries based on document structure like relationship between elements or element orders, low memory overhead for indexing are required. This paper suggests the GDIT(Global Document Instance Tree) data structure and indexing scheme about structure of document which supports low memory overhead for indexing and powerful types of user queries. The structure indexing scheme only index the lowest level element of document and does not effect number of document having retrieval element. Based on the index structure, we propose an query processing algorithm about pure structure, proof the indexing schemes keeps up indexing efficient in terms of space. The proposed index structure bases GDR concept and uses index technique based on GDIT.

This paper presents a new sequential indexing method called segment-page indexing (SP-indexing) for multidimensional range queries. The design objectives of SP-indexing are twofold:(1) improving the range query performance of multidimensional indexing methods (MIMs) and (2) providing a compromise between optimal index clustering and the full index reorganization overhead. Although more than ten years of database research has resulted in a great variety of MIMs, most efforts have focused on data-level clustering and there has been less attempt to cluster indexes. As a result, most relevant index nodes are widely scattered on a disk and many random disk accesses are required during the search. SP-indexing avoids such scattering by storing the relevant nodes contiguously in a segment that contains a sequence of contiguous disk pages and improves performance by offering sequential access within a segment. Experimental results demonstrate that SP-indexing improves query performance up to several times compared with traditional MIMs using small disk pages with respect to total elapsed time and it reduces waste of disk bandwidth due to the use of simple large pages.

In this paper, we address efficient processing of subsequence matching in time-series databases. We first point out the performance problems occurring in the index searching of a prior method for subsequence matching. Then, we propose a new method that resolves these problems. Our method starts with viewing the index searching of subsequence matching from a new angle, thereby regarding it as a kind of a spatial-join called a window-join. For speeding up the window-join, our method builds an R＊-tree in main memory for f query sequence at starting of sub-sequence matching. Our method also includes a novel algorithm for joining effectively one R＊-tree in disk, which is for data sequences, and another R＊-tree in main memory, which is for a query sequence. This algorithm accesses each R＊-tree page built on data sequences exactly cure without incurring any index-level false alarms. Therefore, in terms of the number of disk accesses, the proposed algorithm proves to be optimal. Also, performance evaluation through extensive experiments shows the superiority of our method quantitatively.

W ith the recent advancement of IoT (Internet of Things) technology, there has been much interest in the spatial query processing which energy-efficiently acquires sensor readings from sensor nodes inside specified geographical area of interests. Therefore, various kinds of spatial query processing algorithms and distributed spatial indexing methods have been proposed. They can minimize energy consumption of sensor nodes by reducing wireless communication among them using in-network spatial filtering technology. However, they cannot optimize multiple spatial queries which w ill be w idely used in IoT, because most of them have focused on a single spatial query optimization. Therefore, we propose a new multiple spatial query optimization algorithm which can energy-efficiently process multiple spatial queries in a sensor network. The algorithm uses a concept of 'query merging' that performs the merged set after merging multiple spatial queries located at adjacent area. Here, our algorithm makes a decision on which is better between the merged and the separate execution of queries. For such the decision making, we additionally propose the cost estimation method on the spatial query execution. Finally, we analyze and clarify our algorithm's distinguished features using the spatial indexing methods of GR-tree, SPIX, CPS.

Recently, with the development of cloud computing, interest in database outsourcing is increasing. However, when the database is outsourced, there is a problem in that the information of the data owner is exposed to internal and external attackers. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a parallel range query processing algorithm that supports privacy protection. The proposed algorithm uses the Paillier encryption system to support data protection, query protection, and access pattern protection. To reduce the operation cost of a checking protocol (SRO) for overlapping regions in the existing algorithm, the efficiency of the SRO protocol is improved through a garbled circuit. The proposed parallel range query processing algorithm is largely composed of two steps. It consists of a parallel kd-tree search step that searches the kd-tree in parallel and safely extracts the data of the leaf node including the query, and a parallel data search step through multiple threads for retrieving the data included in the query area. On the other hand, the proposed algorithm provides high query processing performance through parallelization of secure protocols and index search. We show that the performance of the proposed parallel range query processing algorithm increases in proportion to the number of threads and the proposed algorithm shows performance improvement by about 5 times compared with the existing algorithm.

The existing XML storage methods which use relational data model, usually store path information for every node type including literal contents in order to keep the structural information of XML documents. Such path information is usually maintained by an inverted index to efficiently process XPath queries for large XML documents. In this study, We propose an improved approach that retrieve information from the large volume of XML documents stored in a relational database, while using a segment-based inverted index for path searches. Our new approach can reduce the number of searching an inverted index for getting target path information. We show the effectiveness of this approach through several experiments that compare XPath query performance with the existing methods.

The latest active studies on distributed OLAP to adopt a distributed environment are mainly focused on DHT P2P OLAP and Grid OLAP. However, these approaches have its weak points, the P2P OLAP has limitations to multidimensional range queries in the cloud computing environment due to the nature of structured P2P. On the other hand, the Grid OLAP has no regard for adjacency and time series. It focused on its own sub set lookup algorithm. To overcome the above limits, this paper proposes an efficient central managed P2P approach for a cloud computing environment. When a multi-level hybrid P2P method is combined with an index load distribution scheme, the performance of a multi-dimensional range query is enhanced. The proposed scheme makes the OLAP query results of a user to be able to reused by other users' volatile cube search. For this purpose, this paper examines the combination of an aggregation cube hierarchy tree, a quad-tree, and an interval-tree as an efficient index structure. As a result, the proposed cloud P2P OLAP scheme can manage the adjacency and time series factor of an OLAP query. The performance of the proposed scheme is analyzed by a series of experiments to identify its various characteristics.

In spatial database system, spatial view is supported for efficient access method to spatial database and is managed by materialization and non-materialization technique. In non-materialization technique, repeated execution on the same query makes problems such as the bottle-neck effect of server-side and overloads on a network. In materialization technique, view maintenance technique is very difficult and maintenance cost is too high when the base table has been changed. In this paper, the SVMT (Spatial View Materialization Technique) is proposed by using R-tree re-construction. The SVMT is a technique which constructs a spatial index according to the distribution ratio of objects in spatial view. This ratio is computed by using a SVHR (Spatial View Height in R-tree) and SVOC (Spatial View Object Count). If the ratio is higher than the average, a spatial view is materialized and the R-tree index is re-used. In this case, the root node of this index is exchanged a node which has a MBR (Minimum Boundary Rectangle) value that can contains the whole region of spatial view at a minimum size. Otherwise, a spatial view is materialized and the R-tree is re-constructed. In this technique, the information of spatial view is managed by using a SVIT (Spatial View Information Table) and is stored on the record of this table. The proposed technique increases the speed of response time through fast query processing on a materialized view and eliminates additional costs occurred from repeatable query modification on the same query. With these advantages, it can greatly minimize the network overloads and the bottle-neck effect on the server.
