Abstract

웹과 같은 분산 환경에서는, 웹 브라우저 상에서 SQL 형식의 공간 질의를 수행시키는 것과 또한 서버로부터 그 질의 결과를 보는 것이 가능하다. 그러나, 격자 이미지(raster image)와 같은 대용량 공간 데이타를 포함하는 질의 결과를 웹 브라우징할 때 발생하는 많은 문제점들 중에서, 사용자 응답 시간의 지연은 매우 중요한 문제이다. 본 논문에서는 사용자의 재요청(callback) 접근 패턴이 공간적 근접성(spatial locality)을 따른다는 가정하에서의, 사용자 응답 시간을 최소화하기 위한 새로운 프리페치(prefetch) 전략에 대해서 서술한다. 본 논문의 프리페치 전략은 다음과 같이 요약될 수 있다. 첫째, 프리페치 알고리즘은 사용자의 접근 패턴을 잘 반영하는 힐버트 곡선(Hilbert-curve) 모델을 바탕으로 한다. 둘째, 프리페치 전송 비용을 줄이기 위해서 사용자의 재요청 시간 간격(think time)을 이용한다. 본 논문에서는, 힐버트 곡선을 이용한 프리페치 전략의 성능 평가를 위해서 다양한 실험을 하였으며, 그 결과로 프리페치를 하지 않는 방식보다 높은 성능 향상이 있음을 보인다.Abstract In distributed environment(e.g., WWW), it would be possible for the users to submit SQL-like spatial queries and to see their query results from the server on the Web browser. However, of many obstacles which result from browsing query results including large spatial data such as raster image, the delay of user response time is very critical. In this paper we present a new prefetch policy which can alleviate user response time on the assumption that user's callback access pattern has spatial locality. Our prefetch policy can be summerized as follows: 1) our prefetch algorithm is based on the Hibert-curve model which well replects user's access pattern, and 2) it utilizes user's callback interval to reduce prefetch network transmission cost. In this paper we conducted diverse experiments to show that our prefetch policy achieves higher performance improvement compared to other non-prefetch methods.
