GR-tree and query aggregation techniques have been proposed for spatial query processing in conventional spatial query processing for wireless sensor networks. Although these spatial query processing techniques consider spatial query optimization, time query optimization is not taken into consideration. The index reorganization cost and communication cost for the parent sensor nodes increase the energy consumption that is required to ensure the most efficient operation in the wireless sensor node. This paper proposes itinerary-based R-tree (IR-tree) for more efficient spatial-temporal query processing in wireless sensor networks. This paper analyzes the performance of previous studies and IR-tree, which are the conventional spatial query processing techniques, with regard to the accuracy, energy consumption, and query processing time of the query results using the wireless sensor data with Uniform, Gauss, and Skew distributions. This paper proves the superiority of the proposed IR-tree-based space-time indexing.

This paper presents a query processing model in a wrapper based on the XML view tree. The query processing in a wrapper requires view composition, query translation into local sources, and generation of XML documents from local query results. We present a query processing model based on the view tree, where the XML views and the XML query is represented by the view tree. Since the view tree keeps the structure of a virtual XML document, it is easy to navigate the path expression. The view tree is also used as a template for schema generation and XML document generation as a query result. Moreover this conceptual uniform abstraction for the XML view and the user query makes it easy to support a multi-level XML view and to implement our composition mechanism.

In this paper, we propose a new hybrid approach based on query tree protocol to arbitrate tag collisions in RFID systems. The hybrid query tree protocol that combines a tree based query protocol with a slotted backoff mechanism. The proposed protocol decreases the average identification delay by reducing collisions and idle time. To reduce collisions, we use a 4-ary query tree instead of a binary query tree. To reduce idle time, we introduce a slotted backoff mechanism to reduce the number of unnecessary Query commands. Simulation and numerical analysis reveal that the proposed protocol achieves lower identification delay than existing tag collision arbitration protocols.

In ubiquitous sensor networks(USN) environment, it is essential to process region query for user-demand services. Using R-tree is a preferred technique to process region query for in-network query environment. In USN environment, USN middleware must select sensors that transfers region query with accuracy because the lifetime of sensors is that of whole sensor networks. When R-tree is used, however, it blindly passes the region query including non-existent sensors where MBR(Minimum Boundary Rectangle) of R-tree is Intersected by region of query. To solve in this problem, we propose a reconstruction of region query method which is a trie-structured Quad tree in the base station that includes sensors in region of query select with accuracy. We observed that the proposed method delays response time than R-tree, but is useful for reducing communication cost and energy consumption.

Ever since the R-tree was proposed to index multi-dimensional data, many efforts have been made to improve its query performances. One common trend to improve query performance is to parallelize query processing with the use of multi-core architectures. To this end, a GPU-base R-tree has been recently proposed. However, even though a GPU-based R-tree can exhibit an improvement in query performance, it is limited in its ability to handle large volumes of data because GPUs have limited physical memory. To address this problem, we propose MGR-tree (Multi-GPU R-tree), which can manage large volumes of data by dividing nodes into multiple GPUs. Our experiments show that MGR-tree is up to 9.1 times faster than a sequential search on a GPU and up to 1.6 times faster than a conventional GPU-based R-tree.

To process continuous queries on a sensor network, it is required to transfer query predicates and build a query index on each sensor node. However, if we transfer query predicates to all sensor nodes, it makes the number of messages for query predicates increase. In this paper, we propose the scheme to construct the tree based relationship structure using data region of the sensor node and select the target nodes to transfer query predicates. we also implement the tree based relationship structure and measure the number of messages for sending predicates.

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 combined query which consists of the region and trajectory query finds trajectories of moving objects which locate in a certain region. The trajectory query is very informant factor to determine query performance because it processes a point query continuously to find predecessors. This results in bad performance due to revisiting nodes in an index. This paper suggests an efficient method for the combined query based on the 3-dimensional R-tree which has good performance of the region query. The basic idea is that we define the least common search line which enables to search single path and a filtering method based on prediction without revisiting nodes.

Because moving objects usually move on spatial networks, efficient trajectory index structures are required to achieve good retrieval performance on their trajectories. However, there has been little research on trajectory index structures for spatial networks such as FNR-tree and MON-tree. But, because FNR-tree and MON-tree are stored by the unit of the moving object's segment, they can't support the whole moving objects' trajectory. In this paper, we propose an efficient trajectory index structure, named Trajectory of Moving objects on Network Tree(TMN Tree), for moving objects. For this, we divide moving object data into spatial and temporal attribute, and preserve moving objects' trajectory. Then, we design index structure which supports not only range query but trajectory query. In addition, we divide user queries into spatio-temporal area based trajectory query, similar-trajectory query, and k-nearest neighbor query. We propose query processing algorithms to support them. Finally, we show that our trajectory index structure outperforms existing tree structures like FNR-Tree and MON-Tree.

Query applications based on nested data, the most commonly used form of data representation on the web, especially precise query, is becoming more extensively used. MapReduce, a distributed architecture with parallel computing power, provides a good solution for big data processing. However, in practical application, query requests are usually concurrent, which causes bottlenecks in server processing. To solve this problem, this paper first combines a column storage structure and an inverted index to build index for nested data on MapReduce. On this basis, this paper puts forward an optimization strategy which combines query execution service tree and frequent sub-query trajectory to reduce the response time of frequent queries and further improve the efficiency of multi-user concurrent queries on large scale nested data. Experiments show that this method greatly improves the efficiency of nested data query.
