The most important mission of RFID reader is identify EPC (Electronic Product Code) of RFID tag of products that located within distinguishable range of RFID reader. RFID reader transmits query message to RFID tags through wireless channel and RFID tags send unique EPC to response its query message simultaneously. therefore tag collision occurred frequently. RFID tags collision resolution algorithm required to apply RFID technology to various industries. In this paper, we propose enhanced M-ary algorithm that collision bits location is used by not only RFID reader but also tags. the main feature of the proposed algorithm is that integrate multiple query message of M-ary QT algorithm to the single query message by analyze multiple response messages from tags. the simulation results show that the proposed algorithm give better performance than M-ary QT algorithm in terms of the number of query-response, identification efficiency and communication overhead.

Because moving objects usually move on spatial networks, efficient trajectory index structures are required to achieve good retrieval performance on their trajectories. However, there has been little research on trajectory index structures for spatial networks such as FNR-tree and MON-tree. But, because FNR-tree and MON-tree are stored by the unit of the moving object's segment, they can't support the whole moving objects' trajectory. In this paper, we propose an efficient trajectory index structure, named Trajectory of Moving objects on Network Tree(TMN Tree), for moving objects. For this, we divide moving object data into spatial and temporal attribute, and preserve moving objects' trajectory. Then, we design index structure which supports not only range query but trajectory query. In addition, we divide user queries into spatio-temporal area based trajectory query, similar-trajectory query, and k-nearest neighbor query. We propose query processing algorithms to support them. Finally, we show that our trajectory index structure outperforms existing tree structures like FNR-Tree and MON-Tree.

The query optimizer's important task while a query is invoked is to estimate the fraction of records in the databases that satisfy the given query condition. The query result size estimation in spatial databases, like relational databases, proceeds to partition the whole input into a small number of subsets called “buckets” and then estimate the fraction of the input in the buckets. The accuracy of estimation is determined by the difference between the real data counts and approximations in the buckets, and is dependent on how to partition the buckets. Existing techniques for spatial databases are equi-area and equi-count techniques, which are respectively analogous in relation databases to equi-height histogram that divides the input value range into buckets of equal size and equi-depth histogram that is equal to the number of records within each bucket. In this paper we propose a new partitioning technique that determines buckets according to the maximal difference of area which is defined as the product of data ranges End frequencies of input. In this new technique we consider both data values and frequencies of input data simultaneously, and thus achieve substantial improvements in accuracy over existing approaches. We present a detailed experimental study of the accuracy of query result size estimation comparing the proposed technique and the existing techniques using synthetic as well as real-life datasets. Experiments confirm that our proposed techniques offer better accuracy in query result size estimation than the existing techniques for space query size, bucket number, data number and data size.

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.

Top-k queries are issued to find out the highest (or lowest) readings in many sensor applications. Many top-k query processing algorithms are proposed to reduce energy consumption; FILA installs a filter at each sensor node and suppress unnecessary sensor updates; PRIM allots priorities to sensor nodes and collects the minimal number of sensor reading according to the priorities. However, if many sensor reading converge into the same range of sensor values, it leads to a problem that many false positives are occurred. In this paper, we propose a cluster-based approach to reduce them effectively. Our proposed algorithm operates in two phases: top-k query processing in the cluster level and top-k query processing in the tree level. False positives are effectively filtered out in each level. Performance evaluations show that our proposed algorithm reduces about 70% false positives and achieves about 105% better performance than the existing top-k algorithms in terms of the network lifetime.

Healthcare application system has been actively researched to apply WSN technology to healthcare area with a mobile sensor node of low cost, low power, and small size. Sensor node has the problem for transmission range of RF power and time delay of the wireless routing connectivity between sensor nodes. In this paper, we proposes a new method utilizing mobile sensor nodes with relay sensor nodes for quick network routing changing using query technique in healthcare system. A query processor to control and manage the routing changing of sensor nodes in a wireless sensor network was designed and implemented. The user's PC transmits the beacon message which will change the quick link routing according to activity status of patient in wireless sensor network. We describe the implementation for query protocol that is very effective of power saving between sensor nodes.

This paper presents a physical database design methodology for spatial access structures using transformation techniques in spatial database systems. Recently, many spatial access structures have been proposed in the literature. However, there has been no effort for their physical database design. We first show that most spatial queries in the original space are transformed into one type of range queries in the transform space, and then propose a method for finding the optimal configuration of spatial access structures by using the relationship between the shapes of query regions, that are correspond to the range queries, and page regions, that are correspond to data pages, in the transform space. For performance evaluation, we perform extensive experiments with the MBR-MLGF, a spatial access structure using transformation techniques, using various types of queries and data distributions. The results indicate that our proposed method builds optimal MBR-MLGF according to the query types. When the interval ratio of a transformed four-dimensional query region is 1 : 16 : 256 : 4096, the performance of the proposed method is enhanced by as much as five times over that of the conventional cyclic splitting method. The result confirms that the proposed physical database design methodology is useful in a practical way.

In wireless sensor networks, various schemes have been proposed to store and process sensed data efficiently. A Data-Centric Storage(DCS) scheme assigns distributed data regions to sensors and stores sensed data to the sensor which is responsible for the data region overlapping the data. The DCS schemes have been proposed to reduce the communication cost for transmitting data and process exact queries and range queries efficiently. Recently, KDDCS that readjusts the distributed data regions dynamically to sensors based on K-D tree was proposed to overcome the storage hot-spots. However, the existing DCS schemes including KDDCS suffer from Query Hot-Spots that are formed if the query regions are not uniformly distributed. As a result, it causes reducing the life time of the sensor network. In this paper, we propose a new DCS scheme, called TPDCS(Time-Parameterized DCS), that avoids the problems of storage hot-spots and query hot-spots. To decentralize the skewed. data and queries, the data regions are assigned by a time dimension as well as data dimensions in our proposed scheme. Therefore, TPDCS extends the life time of sensor networks. It is shown through various experiments that our scheme outperform the existing schemes.

Positional data of moving objects can be regularly sampled in order to minimize the cost of data collection in LBS. Since position data which are regularly sampled cannot include the changes of position occurred between sampling periods, sampled position data differ from the data predicted by a time parameterized linear function. Uncertain position data caused by these differences make the accuracy of the range queries for present positions diminish in the TPR tree. In this paper, we propose the uncertainty region to handle the range queries for uncertain position data. The uncertainty region is defined by the position data predicted by the time parameterized linear function and the estimated uncertainty error. We also present the weighted recent uncertainty error policy and the kalman filter policy to estimate the uncertainty error. For performance test, the query processor based by the uncertainty region is implemented in the TPR tree. The experiments show that the Proposed query processing methods are more accurate than the existing method by 15%.

For the implementation of a RFID system, an anti-collision algorithm is required to identify multiple tags within the range of a RFID Reader. A Bit-by-Bit algorithm is defined by Auto ID Class 0. In this paper, we propose a SBBB(Stack Bit-by-Bit) algorithm. The SBBB algorithm save the collision position and makes a query using the saved data. SBBB improve the efficiency of collision resolution. We show the performance of the SBBB algorithm by simulation. The performance of the proposed algorithm is higher than that of BBB algorithm. Especially, the more each tag bit streams are the duplicate, the higher performance is.
