R-trees have been traditionally optimized for the I/O performance with the disk page as the tree node. Recently, researchers have proposed cache-conscious variations of R-trees optimized for the CPU cache performance in main memory environments, where the node size is several cache lines wide and more entries are packed in a node by compressing MBR keys. However, because there is a big difference between the node sizes of two types of R-trees, disk-optimized R-trees show poor cache performance while cache-optimized R-trees exhibit poor disk performance. In this paper, we propose a cache and disk optimized R-tree, called the PR-tree (Prefetching R-tree). For the cache performance, the node size of the PR-tree is wider than a cache line, and the prefetch instruction is used to reduce the number of cache misses. For the I/O performance, the nodes of the PR-tree are fitted into one disk page. We represent the detailed analysis of cache misses for range queries, and enumerate all the reasonable in-page leaf and nonleaf node sizes, and heights of in-page trees to figure out tree parameters for best cache and I/O performance. The PR-tree that we propose achieves better cache performance than the disk-optimized R-tree: a factor of 3.5-15.1 improvement for one-by-one insertions, 6.5-15.1 improvement for deletions, 1.3-1.9 improvement for range queries, and 2.7-9.7 improvement for k-nearest neighbor queries. All experimental results do not show notable declines of the I/O performance.

In wireless sensor networks, various schemes have been proposed to store and process sensed data efficiently. A Data-Centric Storage(DCS) scheme assigns distributed data regions to sensors and stores sensed data to the sensor which is responsible for the data region overlapping the data. The DCS schemes have been proposed to reduce the communication cost for transmitting data and process exact queries and range queries efficiently. Recently, KDDCS that readjusts the distributed data regions dynamically to sensors based on K-D tree was proposed to overcome the storage hot-spots. However, the existing DCS schemes including KDDCS suffer from Query Hot-Spots that are formed if the query regions are not uniformly distributed. As a result, it causes reducing the life time of the sensor network. In this paper, we propose a new DCS scheme, called TPDCS(Time-Parameterized DCS), that avoids the problems of storage hot-spots and query hot-spots. To decentralize the skewed. data and queries, the data regions are assigned by a time dimension as well as data dimensions in our proposed scheme. Therefore, TPDCS extends the life time of sensor networks. It is shown through various experiments that our scheme outperform the existing schemes.

A range $Top-\kappa$ query returns top k records in order of a measure attribute within a specified region on multi-dimensional data, and it is a powerful tool for analysis in spatial databases and data warehouse environments. In this paper, we propose an algorithm for answering the query via selective traverse of a Hierarchical Max R-Tree(HMR-tree). It is possible to execute the query by accessing only a small part of the leaf nodes in the query region, and the query performance is nearly constant regardless of the size of the query region. The algorithm manages the priority queue efficiently to reduce cost of handling the queue and the proposed HMR-tree can guarantee the same fan-out as the original R-tree.

This paper addresses an indexing scheme capable of efficiently processing range queries in a large-scale trajectory database. After discussing the drawbacks of previous indexing schemes, we propose a new scheme that divides the temporal dimension into multiple time intervals and then, by this interval, builds an index for the line segments. Additionally, a supplementary index is built for the line segments within each time interval. This scheme can make a dramatic improvement in the performance of insert and search operations using a main memory index, particularly for the time interval consisting of the segments taken by those objects which are currently moving or have just completed their movements, as contrast to the previous schemes that store the index totally on the disk. Each time interval index is built as follows: First, the extent of the spatial dimension is divided onto multiple spatial cells to which the line segments are assigned evenly. We use a 2D-tree to maintain information on those cells. Then, for each cell, an additional 3D $R^*$-tree is created on the spatio-temporal space (x, y, t). Such a multi-level indexing strategy can cure the shortcomings of the legacy schemes. Performance results obtained from intensive experiments show that our scheme enhances the performance of retrieve operations by 3$\sim$10 times, with much less storage space.

Recently, query processing techniques for the multi-dimensional data like images have been widely used to perform content-based retrieval of the data . Range query and Nearest neighbor query are widely used multi dimensional queries . This paper Proposes the efficient pruning strategies for k-nearest neighbor query in R-tree variants indexing structures. Pruning strategy is important for the multi-dimensional indexing query processing so that search space can be reduced. We analyzed the Pruning strategies and perform experiments to show overhead and the profit of the strategies. Finally, we propose best use of the strategies.

A TPR-tree is a well-known indexing structure that is developed to answer queries about the current or future time locations of moving objects. For the purpose of space efficiency, the TPR-tree employs the notion of VBR (velocity bounding rectangle)so that a regionalrectangle presents varying positions of a group of moving objects. Since the rectangle computed from a VBR always encloses the possible maximum range of an indexed object group, a search process only has to follow VBR-based rectangles overlapped with a given query range, while searching toward candidate leaf nodes. Although the TPR-tree index shows up its space efficiency, it easily suffers from the problem of dead space that results from fast and constant expansions of VBR-based rectangles. Against this, the TPR-tree index is enforced to update leaf nodes for reducing dead spaces within them. Such an update-prone feature of the TPR-tree becomes more problematic when the tree is saved in flash storage. This is because flash storage has very expensive update costs. To solve this problem, we propose a new Bloom filter based caching scheme that is useful for reducing updates in a flash TPR-tree. Since the proposed scheme can efficiently control the frequency of updates on a leaf node, it can offer good performance for indexing moving objects in modern flash storage.

Stream service environment demands real-time query processing for voluminous data which are ceaselessly delivered from tremendous sources. Typical R-tree based query processing technologies cannot efficiently handle such situations, which require repetitive and inefficient exploration from the tree root on every data event. However, many stream data including sensor readings show high locality, which we exploit to reduce the search space of queries to explore. In this paper, we propose a query processing scheme exploiting the locality of stream data. From the simulation, we conclude that the proposed scheme performs much better than the traditional ones in terms of scalability and exploration efficiency.

초분광 영상은 기존의 다중분광 영상보다 많은 밴드를 통해 넓은 범위의 파장 영역에 대한 반사율을 담고 있는 고차원 데이터이다. 이와 같은 고차원 데이터를 기존의 R-Tree, X-Tree와 같은 다차원 색인 방법을 사용하게 되면 차원의 저주(Course of Dimensionality)라는 문제가 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 차원의 저주 문제를 해결하기 위해 피라미드 기법을 사용하여 초분광 영상 라이브러리의 색인을 구축하였다. 파라미드 기법은 D차원의 데이터를 2D차원의 피라미드에 사상하고, B+-트리를 이용하여 1차원적으로 색인하는 방법이다. 실험 결과 스펙트럼 매칭을 위한 영역질의 방법이 후보자 추출 시간, 데이터 접근 빈도 측면에서 순차적 접근 방법보다 좋은 성능을 나타냈다.

차량과 같이 시간의 흐름에 따라 위치를 변경하는 객체를 이동체라 한다. 이동체의 과거 궤적은 시간이 지남에 따라 누적되므로 대용량 정보가 된다. 대용량 궤적 정보를 저장하는 이동체 데이터베이스에서 효율적으로 궤적을 검색하기 위해서는 색인이 필요하다. 특히 궤적을 선택하는 과정과 선택된 궤적의 일부분을 추출하는 과정으로 이루어진 복합 질의를 처리하기 위해서는 궤적 보존을 지원하는 TB-tree와 같은 색인 구조가 적합하다. 그러나 TB-tree와 같이 시간적으로 잘 구성된 색인은 공간적인 겹침이 괴지는 문제가 있고, 반대로 공간적으로 잘 구성된 색인은 시간 도메인의 겹침을 심화시키는 문제점이 있다. 이 논문에서는 시간 도메인 중심의 분할 정책과 공간 도메인 중심의 분할 정책을 분석하여 서로 다른 두 도메인 사이의 관계를 밝힐 수 있는 파라미터를 제안하고, 이를 TB-tree에 적용하여 78-tree의 장점을 유지하면서 영역 질의껜 효과적인 분할 정책을 설계 및 구현한다. 또한 성능평가를 통하여 제안된 분할 정책이 기존의 TB-tree 보다 영역 질의에서 우수함을 보인다.
