This paper proposes the fast OVSF code generation method using the multi-stage spreading scheme based on the single code indexing scheme. The conventional OVSF indexing scheme based on the code-tree structure uses two numbers as the codeword indices, the layer number and the code number of the corresponding layer. However, the single code index number implicitly includes the information of the spreading factor as well as the code number. Since the binary representation of the single code indices shows the pattern of the codeword, the orthogonality between two different codewords can be determined by comparing their code indices instead of much longer codewords. The above useful property also makes the codeword can be generated directly kom its single code index. In this paper, the multi-stage spreading scheme is applied to generate the long code by spreading two shorter codewords with the appropriate code indices. The proposed fast code generation algorithm is designed for 3GPP UMTS systems and verified by the simulations.

With the rapid development of wireless communication and mobile equipment, many applications for location-based services have been emerging. Moving objects such as vehicles and ships change their positions over time. Moving objects have their moving path, called the trajectory, because they move continuously. To monitor the trajectory of moving objects in a large scale database system, an efficient Indexing scheme to processed queries related to trajectories is required. In this paper, we focus on the issues of minimizing the dead space of index structures. The Minimum Bounding Boxes (MBBs) of non-leaf nodes in trajectory-preserving indexing schemes have large amounts of dead space since trajectory preservation is achieved at the sacrifice of the spatial locality of trajectories. In this thesis, we propose entry relocating techniques to reduce dead space and overlaps in non-leaf nodes. we present performance studies that compare the proposed index schemes with the TB-tree and the R*-tree under a varying set of spatio-temporal queries.

In this paper, we propose partial denoising boundary matching based on an index for faster matching in very large image databases. Attempts have recently been made to convert boundary images to time-series with the objective of solving the partial denoising problem in boundary matching. In this paper, we deal with the disk I/O overhead problem of boundary matching to support partial denoising in a large image database. Although the solution to the problem superficially appears trivial as it only applies indexing techniques to boundary matching, it is not trivial since multiple indexes are required for every possible denoising parameters. Our solution is an efficient index-based approach to partial denoising using $R^*-tree$ in boundary matching. The results of experiments conducted show that our index-based matching methods improve search performance by orders of magnitude.

In a given text T of size n, we need to search for the information that we are interested. In order to support fast searching, an index must be constructed by preprocessing the text. Suffix array is a kind of index data structure. The compressed suffix array (CSA) is one of the compressed indices based on the regularity of the suffix array, and can be compressed to the $k^{th}$ order empirical entropy. In this paper we improve the lookup time complexity of the compressed suffix array by using the multi-ary wavelet tree at the cost of more space. In our implementation, the lookup time complexity of the compressed suffix array is O(${\log}_{\sigma}^{\varepsilon/(1-{\varepsilon})}\;n\;{\log}_r\;\sigma$), and the space of the compressed suffix array is ${\varepsilon}^{-1}\;nH_k(T)+O(n\;{\log}\;{\log}\;n/{\log}^{\varepsilon}_{\sigma}\;n)$ bits, where a is the size of alphabet, $H_k$ is the kth order empirical entropy r is the branching factor of the multi-ary wavelet tree such that $2{\leq}r{\leq}\sqrt{n}$ and $r{\leq}O({\log}^{1-{\varepsilon}}_{\sigma}\;n)$ and 0 < $\varepsilon$ < 1/2 is a constant.

In this paper, we present a comcurrency control scheme over the index structure in main memory databases using multiversion mechanism, and implement it on T-tree. As a well-known idea for comcurrency control, multiversion allows multiple transactions to reat and write different versions of the same data item, each transaction sees a consistent set of versions for all the data items it accesses[1]. Logical versioning and physical versioning techniques are used to keep versions of data item and versions of index node respectively. The main features of this multiversion indexing approach are (1)update operations and rotations on T-tree can take place concurrently, (2)the number of locking and latching requirement is sharply reduced because read-only transactions do not obtain any locks or latches and update transactions obtain latches only when actually performing the update, (3)it reduces storage overhead for tracking version and reclaims storage in time, and (4)it provides complete isolation of read-only transactions from update transactions, so the read-only transactions can get response information without any block.

Moving objects database systems manage a set of moving objects which changes its locations and directions continuously. The traditional spatial indexing scheme is not suitable for the moving objects because it aimed to manage static spatial data. Because the location of moving object changes continuously, there is problem that expense that the existent spatial index structure reconstructs index dynamically is overladen. In this paper, we analyzed the insertion/deletion costs for processing the movement of objects. The results of our extensive experiments show that the Dynamic Hashing Index outperforms the original R-tree and the fixed grid typically by a big margin.

Extended path expressions are used to denote multiple paths concisely by using '$\ast$' character. They are convenient for expressing OQL queries to retrieve XML data stored in OODBs. In this paper, we propose a multi-path index scheme as a new index scheme to efficiently process queries with extended path expressions. Our proposed index scheme allocates a unique path identifier for every possible single path in an extended path expression and provides functionalities of both a single path indexing and multiple path indexing through the composition of index key and path identifier while using only a index structure. The proposed index scheme provides better performance than single-path index schemes, and is practical since it can be implemented by little modification of leaf records of a B+-tree index.

Since RDF (Resource Description Framework) triples are modeled as graph, we cannot directly adopt existing solutions in relational databases and XML technology. In order to store, index, and query Linked Data more efficiently, we propose a convergence indexing method combined R*-tree and K-dimensional trees. This method uses a hybrid storage system based on HDD (Hard Disk Drive) and SSD (Solid State Drive) devices, and a separated filter and refinement index structure to filter unnecessary data and further refine the immediate result. We perform performance comparisons based on three standard join retrieval algorithms. The experimental results demonstrate that our method has achieved remarkable performance compared to other existing methods such as Quad and Darq.

In most database systems images have been indexed indirectly using related texts such as captions, annotations and image attributes. But there has been an increasing requirement for the image database system supporting the storage and retrieval of images directly by content using the information contained in the images. There has been a few indexing methods based on contents. Among them, Pertains proposed an image indexing method considering spatial relationships and properties of objects forming the images. This is the expansion of the other studies based on '2-D string. But this method needs too much storage space and lacks flexibility. In this paper, we propose a more flexible index structure based on kd-tree using paging techniques. We show an example of extracting keys using normalization from the from the raw image. Simulation results show that our method improves in flexibility and needs much less storage space.

The shape-based retrieval is defined as the operation that searches for the (sub) sequences whose shapes are similar to that of a query sequence regardless of their actual element values. In this paper, we propose a similarity model suitable for shape-based retrieval and present an indexing method for supporting the similarity model. The proposed similarity model enables to retrieve similar shapes accurately by providing the combination of various shape-preserving transformations such as normalization, moving average, and time warping. Our indexing method stores every distinct subsequence concisely into the disk-based suffix tree for efficient and adaptive query processing. We allow the user to dynamically choose a similarity model suitable for a given application. More specifically, we allow the user to determine the parameter p of the distance function $L_p$ when submitting a query. The result of extensive experiments revealed that our approach not only successfully finds the subsequences whose shapes are similar to a query shape but also significantly outperforms the sequence search.
