RFID middleware systems collect and filter the RFID streaming data gathered continuously by numerous readers in order to process requests from applications. These requests are called continuous queries because they are kept on executing during certain periods. To enhance the performance of the middleware, it is required to build an index to process the continuous queries efficiently. Several approaches of building an index on not data records but queries, called Query Index, are proposed and widely used for evaluating continuous queries over streaming data. The EPCglobal proposed an Event Cycle Specification (ECSpec) model, which is a standard query interface for RFID applications. Continuous queries based on ECSpec consist of a large number of segments for representing the query conditions. The problem with using any of the existing query indexes on these continuous queries is that it takes a long time to build the index because it is necessary to insert a large number of segments into the index. To solve this problem, we propose an Aggregate Transformation that converts a group of segments into a compressed data which is representative of the segments. We compare the performance of a transformed index with the existing query indexes.

Cross-Language Information Retrieval (CLIR) deals with the documents in various languages by one language query. A user who uses one language can retrieve the documents in another language through CLIR system. In CLIR, query translation method is known to be more efficient. For the better performance of query translation, we need more resources like dictionary, ontology, and parallel/comparable corpus but usually not available. This paper proposes a new concept called the Common Base Axis which is adapted to Korean-English Query translation ann a new weighting method in dictionary based query translation. The essential idea is that we can express Korean and English word in one vector space by Common Base Axis and use it in calculating sense distance for query weighting. The experiments show that Common Base Axis gives us good performance without ontology and is especially good for one word query translation.

Recently, many studies on query processing algorithms has been done for spatial networks, such as roads and railways, instead of Euclidean spaces, in order to efficiently support LBS(location-based service) and Telematics applications. However, both a closest pairs query and an e-distance join query require a very high cost in query processing because they can be answered by processing a set of POIs, instead of a single POI. Nevertheless, the query processing cost for closest pairs and e-distance join queries is rapidly increased as the number of k (or the length of radius) is increased. Therefore, we propose both a closest pairs query processing algorithm and an e-distance join query processing algorithm using a POI-based materialization technique so that we can process closest pairs and e-distance join queries in an efficient way. In addition, we show the retrieval efficiency of the proposed algorithms by making a performance comparison of the conventional algorithms.

Many object query languages including OQL(the query language proposed by theOBMG) allow query block to be nested in any clause: select clause, from clause and where clause. The processing of nested queries can affect the performance of its query processor Therefore, an OQL query processor should have effective optimizing techniques for nested queries. This paper designs and implements a new framework of an unnesting front-end for an OQL query processor This unnesting module can minimize implementation overhead when developing a new OQL processor or extending an existing query processor to be equipped with an unnesting facility This is accomplished by separation between logical algebra operators used in an unnesting front-end and ones in a query optimizer.

The Voronoi diagram (VD) is the most suitable mechanism to find the nearest neighbor (NN) for mobile clients. In NN query processing, it is important to reduce the query response time, since a late query response may contain out-of-date information. In this paper, we study the issue of location dependent information services (LDISs) using a VD. To begin our study, we first introduce a broadcast-based spatial query processing methods designed to support NN query processing. In further sections, we introduce a generic method for location-dependent sequential prefetching and caching. The performance of this scheme is studied in different simulated environments. The core contribution of this research resides in our analytical proof and experimental results.

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.

The telematics data management deals with queries on stream data coming from moving cars. So the stream DBMS should process the large amount of data stream in real-time. In this article, previous research projects are analyzed in the aspects of query processing. And a hybrid model is introduced where query preprocessor is used to process all types of queries in one singe system. Decreasing cost and rapidly increasing Performance of devices may guarantee the utmost parallelism of the hybrid system. As a result, various types of stream DBMS queries could be processed in a uniform and efficient way in a single system.

Range query is one of the most important operations for spatial objects, it retrieves all spatial objects that overlap a given query region in multi-dimensional space. The DOT(DOuble Transformation) is known as an efficient indexing methods, it transforms the MBR of a spatial object into a single numeric value using a space filling curve, and stores the value in a $B^+$-tree. The DOT index is possible to be employed as a primary index for spatial objects. However, the range query processing based on the DOT index requires much overhead for spatial transformations to get the query region in the final space. Also, the detailed range query processing method for 2-dimensional spatial objects has not been studied yet in this paper, we propose an efficient multi-dimensional range query processing technique based on the DOT index. The proposed technique exploits the regularities in the moving patterns of space filling curves to divide a query region into a set of maximal sub-legions within which space filling curves traverse without interruption. Such division reduces the number of spatial transformations required to perform the range query and thus improves the performance of range query processing. A visual simulator is developed to show the evaluation method and the performance of our technique.

Location-Based Services (LBSs) provide results to queries according to the location of the client issuing the query. In LBS, techniques such as caching and prefetching are effective approaches to reducing the data transmission from a server and query response time. However, they can lead to cache inefficiency and network overload due to the client's mobility and query pattern. To solve these drawbacks, we propose a semantic prefetching (SP) scheme using prefetching segment concept and improved cache replacement policies. When a mobile client enters a new service area, called semantic prefetching area, proposed scheme fetches the necessary semantic information from the server in advance. The mobile client maintains the information in its own cache for query processing of location-dependent data (LDD) in mobile computing environment. The performance of the proposed scheme is investigated in relation to various environmental variables, such as the mobility and query pattern of user, the distributions of LDDs and applied cache replacement strategies. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme is more efficient than the well-known existing scheme for range query and nearest neighbor query. In addition, applying the two queries dynamically to query processing improves the performance of the proposed scheme.
