Temporal databases support an efficient historical management by means of valid time and transaction time. Valid time stands for the time when a data happens in the real world. And transaction time stands for the time when a data is stored in the database, Temporal Query Processing System(TQPS) should be extended so as tc process the temporal operations for the historical informations in the user query as well as the conventional relational operations. In this paper, the extended temporal query processing systems which is based on the previous temporal query processing system for TQuel(Temporal Query Language) consists of the temporal syntax analyzer, temporal semantic analyzer, temporal code generator, and temporal interpreter is to be described, The algorithm for additional functions such as transaction time management, temporal aggregates, temporal views, temporal joins and the heuristic optimization functions and their example how to be processed is shown.

Processing the continuous queries which perform the identical query in given time interval is required because of the continuous change of location of the moving object. Thus the continuous query may cause loads to the server or network and take the cost of processing time because the continuous query is performed in server as the moving object's location changes. In this paper, we propose the query processing technique to perform the continuous range query that is a sort of continuous query effectively The proposed query processing technique predicts the query result and the validity of query answer to perform the continuous query for reciprocal moving object. And it enables to process effectively the query that moves dynamically.

Sensors are deployed to gather physical, environmental data in sensor networks. Depending on scenarios, it is often assumed that it is difficult for batteries to be recharged or exchanged in sensors. Thus, sensors should be able to process users' queries in an energy-efficient manner. This paper proposes a spatial query processing scheme- Minimum Bounding Area Based Scheme. This scheme has a purpose to decrease the number of outgoing messages during query processing. To do that, each sensor has to maintain some partial information locally about the locations of descendent nodes. In the initial setup phase, the routing path is established. Each child node delivers to its parent node the location information including itself and all of its descendent nodes. A parent node has to maintain several minimum bounding boxes per child node. This scheme can reduce unnecessary message propagations for query processing. Finally, the experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

In this paper we present a spatial big data query processing system that can store spatial data in Hadoop and query the data with SQL-based query language. The system stores large-scale spatial data in HDFS-based storage system, and supports spatial queries expressed in SQL-based query language extended for spatial data processing. It supports standard spatial data types and functions defined in OGC simple feature model in the query language. This paper presents the development of core functions of the system including query language parsing, query validation, query planning, and connection with storage system. We compares the performance of the suggested system with an existing system, and our experiments show that the system shows about 58% performance improvement of query execution time over the existing system when executing region query for spatial data stored in Hadoop.

Query language has been widely used as a convenient tool to obtain information from a database. However, users demand more intelligent query processing systems that can understand the intent of an imprecise query and provide additional useful information as well as exact answers. This paper introduces a meta-database and presents a query processing mechanism that supports a variety of intelligent queries in a consistent and integrated way. The meta-database extracts data abstraction knowledge from an underlying database on the basis of a multilevel knowledge representation framework KAH. In cooperation with the underlying database, the meta-database supports four types of intelligent queries that provide approximately or conceptually equal answers as well as exact ones.

According to the widespread use of ontology-based applications, it is critical to efficiently store and process semantic information. Even though several related systems have been developed, they have some limitations in perspectives of the volume of target semantic data, the performance of semantic query processing, and the semantic data maintenance. In this paper we propose the OWL-aware relational model for the ontology management system and SQL-based semantic query processing mechanism. Also, to verify the query processing performance, we show that the proposed query professing mechanism is more efficient than sesame.

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are likely to be more prevalent as their cost-effectiveness improves. The spectrum of applications for WSNs spans multiple domains. In environmental sciences, in particular, they are on the way to become an essential technology for monitoring the natural environment and the dynamic behavior of transient physical phenomena over space. Existing sensor network query processors (SNQPs) have also demonstrated that in-network processing is an effective and efficient means of interaction with WSNs for performing queries over live data. Inspired by these findings, this paper investigates the question as to whether spatio-temporal and historical analysis can be carried over WSNs using distributed query-processing techniques. The emphasis of this work is on the spatial, temporal and historical aspects of sensed data, which are not adequately addressed in existing SNQPs. This paper surveys the novel approaches of storing the data and execution of spatio-temporal and historical queries. We introduce the challenges and opportunities of research in the field of in-network storage and in-network spatio-temporal query processing as well as illustrate the current status of research in this field. We also present new areas where the spatio-temporal and historical query processing can be of significant importance.

As distributed computing platforms like Hadoop MapReduce have been developed, it is necessary to perform the conventional query processing techniques, which have been executed in a single computing machine, in distributed computing environments efficiently. Especially, studies on similarity join query processing in distributed computing environments have been done where similarity join means retrieving all data pairs with high similarity between given two data sets. But the existing similarity join query processing schemes for distributed computing environments have a problem of skewed computing load balance between clusters because they consider only the data transmission cost. In this paper, we propose Matrix-based Load-balancing Algorithm for efficient similarity join query processing in distributed computing environment. In order to uniform load balancing of clusters, the proposed algorithm estimates expected computing cost by using matrix and generates partitions based on the estimated cost. In addition, it can reduce computing loads by filtering out data which are not used in query processing in clusters. Finally, it is shown from our performance evaluation that the proposed algorithm is better on query processing performance than the existing one.

The tuple of constraint database consists of constraint logical formula and it could process the presentation and query of the constraint database simply. Query operation processing shall include the constraint formula between related tuple such as selection, union, intersection of spatial data through the constraint database. However, this could produce the increasing of duplicated or unnecessary data. Hence, it will drive up the cost as per quality. This paper identified problems regarding query processing result in the constraint database. Also this paper suggested the tuple minimization summary method for result relation and analyzed the effects for efficient query processing. We were able to identify that the effectiveness of the query processing was enhanced by eliminating unnecessary constraint formula of constraint relation using the tuple minimization method.
