چکیده

Projects for the creation of large cartographic data bases and the advent of high volume optical disk technology create a need for structures for static mass data storage. This paper reviews existing approaches for structuring mass storage and proposes a scheme which combines the following concepts: a) separation of "background data" from "geographic object data"; b) use of hierarchical grid structures to define data buckets; c) coordinate shuffling to define keys for the spatial domain; d) use of efficient one-dimensional access structures (B-trees, Extendible Hashing); and e) pointer elimination due to the static properties of the data bases.

Uncertainty analysis of hierarchical granular structures for multi-granulation typical hesitant fuzzy approximation space

Hierarchical structures and uncertainty measures are two main aspects in granular computing, approximate reasoning and cognitive process. Typical hesitant fuzzy sets, as a prime extension of fuzzy sets, are more flexible to reflect the hesitance and ambiguity in knowledge representation and decision making. In this paper, we mainly investigate the hierarchical structures and uncertainty measure...

Weighted-HR: An Improved Hierarchical Grid Resource Discovery

Grid computing environments include heterogeneous resources shared by a large number of computers to handle the data and process intensive applications. In these environments, the required resources must be accessible for Grid applications on demand, which makes the resource discovery as a critical service. In recent years, various techniques are proposed to index and discover the Grid resource...

Quadtree and Octree Grid Generation

Engineering analysis often involves the accurate numerical solution of boundary value problems in discrete form. Hierarchical quadtree (or octree) grid generation offers an efficient method for the spatial discretisation of arbitrary-shaped two- (or three-) dimensional domains. It consists of recursive algebraic splitting of sub-domains into quadrants (or cubes), leading to an ordered hierarchi...

Improving Data Grids Performance by Using Modified Dynamic Hierarchical Replication Strategy

Abstract: A Data Grid connects a collection of geographically distributed computational and storage resources that enables users to share data and other resources. Data replication, a technique much discussed by Data Grid researchers in recent years creates multiple copies of file and places them in various locations to shorten file access times. In this paper, a dynamic data replication strate...
