چکیده

Emerging and continuing advances in ambient systems and localization techniques have brought novel opportunities to develop context-aware navigation services in indoor environments. Diverse kinds of services delivered to the users can be provided by enabling real-time integration of contextual dimensions. In particular, continuous location-dependent queries can be considered as key elements for the development of different categories of context-aware services. However, most work on location-dependent query processing has been mainly oriented towards outdoor environments. This paper introduces a generic architecture for continuous location-dependent and navigation-related queries in indoor environments. A multi-level model of space is designed by taking into account contextual information and the hierarchical layout of an indoor environment. The semantics of a query language for continuous location-dependent queries are introduced, along with some motivating sample queries.

A PostgreSQL extension for continuous path and range queries in indoor mobile environments

Continuous location-dependent queries are key elements for the development of locationbased and context-aware services. While most work on location-dependent query processing has been mainly oriented towards outdoor environments, this paper develops an approach for the continuous processing of location-dependent queries over indoor moving objects. A prototype for handling those queries has been...

Continuous Query Processing of Spatio-temporal Data Streams in PLACE

The tremendous increase in the use of cellular phones, GPS-like devices, and RFIDs results in highly dynamic environments where objects as well as queries are continuously moving. In this paper, we present a continuous query processor designed specifically for highly dynamic environments (e.g., location-aware environments). We implemented the proposed continuous query processor inside the PLACE...
