Existing methods to process continuous range queries are not scalable. In particular, as the number of continuous range queries on a large number of moving objects becomes larger, their performance degrades significantly. We propose a novel query indexing method called the projected attribute bit (PAB)-based query index. We project a two-dimensional continuous range query on each axis to get two one-dimensional bit lists. Since the queries are transformed to bit lists and query evaluation is performed by bit operations, the storage cost of indexing and query evaluation time are reduced significantly. Through various experiments, we show that our method outperforms the containment-encoded squares-based indexing method, which is one of the most recently proposed methods.

Recent applications on continuous queries on moving objects are extended quickly to various parts. These applications need not only 2-dimensional space data but also high-dimensional space data. If we use previous index for overlapped continuous range queries on high-dimensional space data, as the number of continuous range queries on a large number of moving objects becomes larger, their performance degrades significantly. We focus on stationary queries, non-exponential increase of storage cost and efficient processing time for large data sets. In this paper, to solve these problems, we present a novel query indexing method, denoted as PAB(Projected Attribute Bit)-based query index. We transfer information of high-dimensional continuous range query on each axis into one-dimensional bit lists by projecting technique. Also proposed query index supports incremental update for efficient query processing. Through various experiments, we show that our method outperforms the CES(containment-encoded squares)-based indexing method which is one of the most recent research.

In this paper, we explore the efficient processing of continuous range queries over a huge number of moving objects, each of which retrieves the moving objects that are currently located within a geographic query region of interest. The moving objects should continually communicate with the server to report their current locations, so as to keep the results of the continuous range queries up-to-date. However, this increases the server workload and involves a enormous amount of communication as the number of continuous range queries and the moving objects becomes enormous. In this paper, we adopt an approach where we leverage available memory and computational resources of the moving objects in order to resolve these problems. To this end, we propose a query indexing structure, referred to as the Space Partitioning Query Index(SPQI), which enables the server to efficiently cooperate with the moving objects for processing continuous range queries. SPQI improves system performance in terms of server workload and communication cost. Through simulations, we show the superiority of SPQI.

In this paper, we propose an efficient continuous range query processing scheme using a modified grid based query indexing to reduce storage spaces and to accelerate processing time. The proposed method has two major features. First, each query has a bit identifier and each cell in a grid has a bit pattern that consists of the bit identifiers of the queries. The bit patterns present the relationship between cells and queries. Using the bit patterns, we can compute quickly what queries overlap a cell in a grid and reduce the number of unnecessary operations by comparing the bit patterns without comparing the query identifiers when we compute the relation between cells and queries. Second, the management of cells in the grid by groups prevents from wasting the storage space through the increase of the length of the bit pattern and increasing the comparison costs of bit patterns. We show through the performance evaluation that the proposed method outperforms the existing methods.

RFID 미들웨어에서 처리하는 데이터는 스트림 데이터로써 질의색인 기법을 사용하면 효과적이다. 질의색인에서는 RFID 미들웨어의 표준 질의 인터페이스인 ECSpec 이 데이터가 되고, 리더가 태그를 인식하면서 발생하는 태그 이벤트는 질의 색인의 점 칠의가 된다. 질의색인의 데이터인 EXSpec 은 태그 및 리더에 대한 수집 조건과 결과집합의 보고 주기를 포함한다. 이때, 태그 이벤트가 발생할 때마다 점 질의를 즉시 수행하는 것보다 보고 주기까지 지연하고 수집된 질의 집합에서 연속되는 태그 이벤트를 영역 질의로 수행하면 질의 수행 횟수를 줄일 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 일정기간 동안의 연속된 태그 이벤트를 영역 연속 질의(a range continuous query)로 처리하기 위한 큐의 구성 방안과 태그 이벤트 집합으로부터 영역질의를 구성하기 위한 자료구조 및 알고리즘을 제안한다.

Skyline queries have recently received considerable attention in the searching services. The skyline contains interesting objects that are not dominated by any other objects on all dimensions. Many related works have processed a skyline on static data or on moving objects in Euclidean space. However, this paper assumes that the point of a skyline query continuously moves in road networks. We propose a new method that efficiently processes continuous skyline queries in road networks through pre-computed shortest range data of objects. Our experiments show that the proposed method is about 100 times faster than previous methods in terms of query processing time.

Wireless sensor networks (WSN) can be more reliable and easier to program and use with the help of sensor database management systems (SDMS). SDMS establish a user-friendly SQL-based interface to process declarative user-defined queries over sensor readings from WSN. Typical queries in SDMS are ad-hoc snapshot queries and long-running, continuous queries. In SDMSs queries are flooded to all nodes in the sensor net, and query results are sent back from nodes that have qualified results to a base station. For query flooding to all nodes, and result flooding to the base station, a lot of communication energy consuming is required. This paper suggests an efficient in-network index solution, named Distributed Information Gathering (DIG) to process range queries in a sensor net environment that can save energy by reducing query and result flooding.

The EPCglobal leading the development in RFID standards proposed Event Cycle Specification (ECSpec) and Event Cycle Reports (ECReports) for the standard about RFID middleware interface. ECSpec is a specification for filtering and collecting RFID tag data and is treated as a Continuous Query (CQ) processed during fixed time intervals repeatedly. ECReport is a specification for describing the results after ECSpec is processed. Thus, it is efficient to apply Query Indexing technique designed for the continuous query processing. This query index processes ECSpecs as data and tag events as queries for efficiency. In logistics environment, the similar or same products are transferred together. Also, when RFID tags attached to the products are acquired, the acquisition events occur massively for the short period. For these properties, it is inefficient to process the massive events one by one. In this paper, we propose a technique reducing similar search process by considering tag events which are collected by the report period in ECSpec, as a range query. For this group processing, we suggest a queuing method for collecting tag events efficiently and a structure for generating range queries in the queues. The experiments show that performance is enhanced by the proposed methods.

In stream data processing system, generally the interval queries are in advance registered in the system. When a data is input to the system continuously, for realtime processing, a query indexing method is used to quickly search queries. Thus, a main memory-based query index with a small storage cost and a fast search time is needed for searching queries. In this paper, we propose a LVC-based(Limited Virtual Construct-based) query index method using a hashing to meet the both needs. In LVC-based query index, we divide the range of a stream into limited virtual construct, or LVC. We map each interval query to its corresponding LVC and the query ID is stored on each LVC. We have compared with the CEI-based query indexing method through the simulation experiment. When the range of values of input stream is broad and there are many short interval queries, the LVC-based indexing method have shown the performance enhancement for the storage cost and search time.
