기존의 관계형 데이터베이스 시스템은 기본적으로 count, max, min, sum, avg의 집계 함수(aggregate functions)를 제공하며, UBMS에 따라 다양한 집계 연산자를 추가로 지원한다. 시공간 데이터베이스는 기본적인 공간 정보뿐만 아니라 시간 흐름에 따른 이력 정보를 취급하므로 데이터베이스로부터 자유로운 이력(history) 정보의 검색 기능이 요구되고 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 시공간 데이터베이스로부터 이력을 자동으로 검색할 수 있는 새로운 집계 연산자, ‘history’를 제안하고, 그 처리 알고리즘과 SQL3에서 탐색 질의 표현법을 제안한다. 결과적으로, 제안된 이력 집계 연산자는 향후 SQL3리 질의 표현 능력의 제고에 기여할 것이다.

Recently, the location-based service for moving customers is becoming one of the most important service in mobile communication area. For moving object applications, there are lots of update operations and such update loads are concentrated on some particular area unevenly. The primary processing of LBS application is spatio-temporal range queries. To improve the throughput of spatio-temporal range queries, the time of disk I/O in query processing should be reduced. In this paper, we adopt non-uniform two-level grid index structures of GALIS architecture,which are designed to minimize update operations. We propose query scheduling technique using spatial relationship and time relationship and a combined spatio-temporal query processing method using time zone concepts to improve the throughput of query processing. Some experimental results are shown for range queries with different query range to show the performance tradeoffs of the proposed methods.

Recently, the wireless positioning techniques and mobile computing techniques have rapidly developed to use location data of moving objects. The more the number of moving objects is numerous and the more periodical sampling of locations is frequent, the more location data of moving objects become very large. Hence the system should be able to efficiently manage mass location data, support various spatio-temporal queries for LBS, and solve the uncertainty problem of moving objects. Therefore, in this paper, innovating the location data of moving object effectively, we propose Rend 3DR-tree method to decrease the dead space and complement the overlapping of nodes by utilizing 3DR-tree with the indexing structure to support indexing of current data and history data.

Moving-objects databases should efficiently support database queries that refer to the trajectories and positions of continuously moving objects. To improve the performance of these queries. an efficient indexing scheme for continuously moving objects is required. To my knowledge, range queries on current positions cannot be handled by the 3D R-tree and the TB-tree. In order to handle range queries on current and past positions. I modified the original 3D R-tree to keep the now tags. Most of spatio-temporal index structures suffer from the fact that they cannot efficiently process range queries past positions of moving objects. To address this issue. we propose an access method, called the Tagged Adaptive 3DR-tree (or just TA3DR-tree), which is based on the original 3D R-tree method. The results of our extensive experiments show that the Tagged Adaptive 3DR-tree outperforms the original 3D R-tree and the TB-tree typically by a big margin.

Population distribution in urban space varies with transportation flow changing along time of day. Transportation flow is directly affected by the activities of urbanites and the distribution of related facilities, since the flow is the result of moving to the point where the facilities associated with their activities are located. It is thus necessary to analyze the spatio-temporal characteristics of the urban population distribution by integrating the distribution of activity spaces related to the daily life of urbanites and the flow of transportation. The purpose of this study is to analyze the population distribution in urban space with daily and weekly time bases using the building database and T-card database in the city of Seoul, which is rich in information on land use and transportation flow. For a time-based analysis that is difficult to grasp by general statistical techniques, a four-dimensional visualization method combining time and space using a Java program is devised. Dynamic visualization in the four-dimensional space and time allows intuitive analysis and makes it possible to understand more effectively the spatio-temporal characteristics of population distribution. For this purpose, buildings are classified into three activity groups: residential, working, and commercial according to their purpose, and the number of passengers traveling to and from each stop site of bus and subway networks in the T-card database for one week is calculated in one-minute increments, Visualizing these and integrating transportation and land use, we analyze spatio-temporal characteristics of the population distribution in Seoul. As a result, it is found that the population distribution of Seoul displays distinct spatio-temporal characteristics according to land use. In particular, there is a clear difference in the population distribution pattern along the time axis according to the mixed aspects of working, commercial, and residential activities. The results of this study can be very useful for transportation and location planning of city facilities.

LBS(Location Based Services) provide the location-based information to its mobile users. The primary functionality of these services is to provide useful information to its users at a minimum cost of resources. The functionality can be implemented through data mining techniques. However, conventional data mining researches have not been considered spatial and temporal aspects of data simultaneously. Therefore, these techniques are inappropriate to apply on the objects of LBS, which change spatial attributes over time. In this paper, we propose a new data mining technique for identifying the temporal patterns from the series of the locations of moving objects that have both temporal and spatial dimension. We use a spatial operation of contains to generalize the location of moving point and apply time constraints between the locations of a moving object to make a valid moving sequence. Finally, the spatio-temporal technique proposed in this paper is very practical approach in not only providing more useful knowledge to LBS, but also improving the quality of the services.

In this paper, we are going to develop a newly designed indexing scheme which is compatible to manage the moving objects and propose a cost model of the scheme. We propose a dynamic hashing index that insertion/delete costs are low. The dynamic hashing structure is that apply dynamic hashing techniques to combine a hash and a tree to a spatial index. We analyzed the dynamic index structure and the cost model by the frequent position update of moving objects and verified through a performance assessment experiment. The results of our extensive experiments show that the newly proposed indexing schemes(Dynamic Hashing Index) are much more efficient than the traditional the fixed grid and R-tree.

The trajectory preservation property that stores only one trajectory in a leaf node is the most important feature of an index structure, such as the TB-tree for retrieving object's moving paths in the spatio-temporal space. It performs well in trajectory-related queries such as navigational queries and combined queries. But, the MBR of non-leaf nodes in the TB-tree have large amounts of dead space because trajectory preservation is achieved at the sacrifice of the spatial locality of trajectories. As dead space increases, the overlap between nodes also increases, and, thus, the classical range query cost increases. We present a new split policy and entry relocation policies, which have no deterioration of the performance for trajectory-related queries, for improving the performance of range queries. To maximally reduce the dead space of a non-leaf node's MBR, the Maximal Area Reduction (MAR) policy is used as a split policy for non-leaf nodes. The entry relocation policy induces entries in non-leaf nodes to exchange each other for the purpose of reducing dead spaces in these nodes. We propose two algorithms for the entry relocation policy, and evaluate the performance studies of new algorithms comparing to the TB-tree under a varying set of spatio-temporal queries.

비디오 데이터에서 움직임 객체에 대한 움직임 경로는 내용-기반 검색을 위해 비디오 데이터를 색인하는 데 있어 매우 중요한 역할을 한다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 비디오 데이터에서 움직임 객체의 움직임 경로를 모델링하기 위한 새로운 시공간 표현 기법을 제안한다. 비디오 데이터를 위한 보다 효율적인 내용-기반 검색을 위해, 제안하는 기법은 시간, 공간 관계성과 더불어 일정 시간 간격 동안 움직인 객체의 이동 거리(moving distance)를 고려한다. 아울러, 제안하는 표현 기법에 기반하여 단일 움직임 객체의 움직임 경로와 다수 움직임 객체들의 움직임 경로를 위한 새로운 유사성 측정 알고리즘을 제시하며, 이들 알고리즘은 검색 결과에 대해서 유사성에 준하여 순위(Ranking)를 부여할 수 있다. 마지막으로, 성능 평가를 통하여 제안된 시공간 표현 기법은 기조의 Li 방법과 Shan의 방법에 비해 동등한 재현율을 유지하며, 정확율 측면에서 약 20%의 성능 향상을 보인다.
