Various techniques including histograms, sampling and parametric techniques have been proposed to estimate query result sizes for the query optimization. Histogram-based techniques are the most widely used form for the selectivity estimation in relational database systems. However, in the spatio-temporal databases for the moving objects, the continual changes of the data distribution suffer the direct utilization of the state of the art histogram techniques. Specifically for the future queries, we need another methodology that considers the updated information and keeps the accuracy of the result. In this paper we propose a novel approach based upon the duality and the marginal distribution to construct a histogram with very little time since the spatio-temporal histogram requires the data distribution defined by query predicates. We use data synopsis method in the dual space to construct spatio-temporal histograms. Our method is robust to changing data distributions during a certain period of time while the objects keep the linear movements. An additional feature of our approach supports the dynamic update incrementally and maintains the accuracy of the estimated result.

Recently, the needs for an efficient and secure access control method of dynamic XML data in a ubiquitous data streams environment have become an active research area. In this paper, we proposed an improved role-based prime number labeling scheme for an efficient and secure access control labeling method in dynamic XML data streams. And we point out the limitations of existing access control and labeling schemes for XML data assuming that documents are frequently updated. The improved labeling method where labels are encoded ancestor-descendant and sibling relationships between nodes but need not to be regenerated when the document is updated. Our improved role-based prime number labeling scheme supports an infinite number of updates and guarantees the arbitrary nodes insertion at arbitrary position of the XML tree without label collisions. Also we implemented an efficient access control using a role-based prime number labeling. Finally, we have shown that our approach is an efficient and secure through experiments.

이 논문에서는 쿼리-바이-싱잉/허밍 (Query-by-singing/humming, QbSH) 시스템 또는 커버 노래 인식 (cover song identification) 시스템에서 사용 가능한 멜로디 유사도를 제안한다. QbSH 또는 커버 노래 인식은 디지털 음악의 사용이 보편화되면서 음악 검색의 방법으로 많은 연구가 진행되어 오고 있다. 멜로디 유사도는 이런 시스템을 구현하는데 필수적인 요소이며, 두 개의 음악에서 멜로디가 추출되었다고 가정하고, 추출된 멜로디 사이의 유사한 정도를 수치로 표현한다. QbSh 시스템이나 커버 노래 인식 시스템은 멜로디 유사도에 기반하여 입력 노래와 유사한 노래를 데이터베이스에서 검색하는 작업을 수행한다. 이 논문에서 제안하는 멜로디 유사도 방식은 기존의 많이 연구되던 동적 시간 왜곡 (dynamic time warping, DTW) 방법과 크로마 표현 방법 (chroma representation)을 사용하였다. DTW방법은 비대칭적으로 사용하고 미디 노트 영역에서 표현된 멜로디 특징은 0이상 12 미만의 크로마 레벨로 표현하였다. 기존의 방법에서는 정수값을 많이 사용하였으나 이 논문에서는 실수값을 사용한다. DTW 에 사용하는 거리 함수를 기존에 사용하던 차이의 절대값 대신 꺾인 함수 형태를 사용함으로써 성능을 높였다. QbSH 시스템에서의 실험을 통해서 성능을 검증하였다. 본 논문에서는 10-12초 길이의 1000번의 쿼리(Query)에 대해서 28시간 정도의 데이터베이스에서 실험한 결과, 순위 역의 평균 (Mean reciprocal rank, MRR) 값이 0.713을 보였다.

For the implementation of a RFID system, an anti-collision algorithm is required to identify multiple tags within the range of a RFID Reader. There are two methods of anti-collision algorithms for the identification of multiple tags, conclusive algorithms based on tree and stochastic algorithms based on slotted ALOHA. In this paper, we propose a Dynamic Framed Slotted ALOHA-Slot Congestion(DFSA-SC) Algorithm. The proposed algorithm improves the efficiency of collision resolution. The performance of the proposed DFSA-SC algorithm is showed by simulation. The identification time of the proposed algorithm is shorter than that of the existing DFSA algorithm. Furthermore, when the bit duplication of the tagID is higher, the proposed algorithm is more efficient than Query Tree algorithm.

This paper is to improve an identification ratio of tags by analyzing Slotted ALOHA, Dynamic Slotted ALOHA, Binary-tree and Query-tree and shortening the tag identification time in mobile RFID. Also, it enables the stable information transmission of tags by saving backscattering power of tags through shortening of identification time. As a result, this increases the available time of the battery and accessibility to a RFID service. For this, we proposed the energy-efficient tag anti-collision protocol for mobile RFID. The proposed scheme shows advanced result in identification time and collision counts. This scheme may be the first attempt for the mobile anti-collision.

Existing techniques for string similarity search first generate a set of candidate strings and then verify the candidates. The efficiency of string similarity search is highly dependent on candidate generation methods. State of the art techniques select fixed length q-grams from a query string and generate candidates using inverted lists of the selected q-grams. In this paper, we propose a technique to generate candidates using variable length grams of a query string and develop a dynamic programming algorithm that selects an optimal combination of variable length grams from a query string. Experimental results show that the proposed technique improves the performance of string similarity search compared with the existing techniques.

This paper presents an effective and robust leaf image retrieval system based on shape feature. Specifically, we propose an improved MPP algorithm for more effective representation of leaf images and show a new dynamic matching algorithm that basically revises the Nearest Neighbor search to reduce the matching time. In particular, both leaf shape and leaf arrangement can be sketched in the query for better accuracy and efficiency. In the experiment, we compare our proposed method with other methods including Centroid Contour Distance(CCD), Fourier Descriptor, Curvature Scale Space Descriptor(CSSD), Moment Invariants, and MPP. Experimental results on one thousand leaf images show that our approach achieves a better performance than other methods.

This paper addresses the problem of monitoring continuous k-nearest neighbor (k-NN) queries. Given a set of moving (or static) objects and a set of moving (or static) query points, monitoring continuous k-NN query retrieves and updates the closest k objects to a query point continually. In order to support location based services (LBSs) in highly dynamic environments, where objects and/or queries are frequently moving, monitoring continuous queries require real-time updated results when objects and/or queries change their locations. Thus, it is important to minimize time delay for maintaining up to date the results. In this paper, we present monitoring method to shorten time delay for updating continuous k-NN queries based on the notion of result region and the minimum bounding rectangle enclosing all objects in each cell, referred to as c-MBR, in the grid index structure. Simulations are conducted to show the efficiency of the proposed method.

We propose a peer-to-peer search scheme in which super peers with high rapacity constitute a ring by themselves and all peers utilize the ring for their query and publishing keys. In a dynamic peer-to-peer environment, the size of the super peer ring changes adaptively according to the changes of the system, but more powerful peers are continuously promoted to super peers. By simulations, we show that our proposed search scheme improves the query success rate of Gnutella+1hop replication search method, and maintains shorter query delay than JXTA as a static ring.

A Web-based pile load test (WBPLT) system was developed and implemented in this study. Object-oriented and concept-based software design techniques were adopted to integrate the pile load test database into the system. A total of 673 case histories of pile load test were included in the database. The data consisted of drilled shaft and driven precast concrete pile axial load tests in drained, undrained, and gravel loading conditions as well as pre-analyzed data and back-calculated design parameters. Unified modeling language, a standard software design tool, was utilized to design the WBPLT system architecture with five major concept-based components. These components provide the static structure and dynamic behavior of system message flows in a visualized manner. The open-source Apache Web server is the building block of the WBPLT system, and PHP Web programming language implements the operation of the WBPLT components, particularly the automatic translation of user query into structured query language. A simple search and inexpensive query can be implemented through the Internet browser. The pile load test database is helpful, and data can be easily retrieved and utilized worldwide for research and advanced applications.
