Abstract At the southern mouth of Tañon Strait—the body water that separates islands Cebu and Negros in Visayas region Philippines—small-scale fishing has always been challenging. Strong complex sea currents make it difficult for fishers to utilise certain gears. With a significant decline resource base new regulations fisheries recent decades, only with advanced skills fine-grained place-speci...

Commercial OLAP systems usually treat OLAP dimensions as static entities. In practice, dimension updates are often necessary in order to adapt the multidimensional database to changing requirements. In earlier work we proposed a temporal multidimensional model and TOLAP, a query language supporting it, accounting for dimension updates and schema evolution at a high level of abstraction. In this...

In this paper we present a variety of browsing interfaces for digital video information. The six interfaces are implemented on top of Físchlár, an operational recording, indexing, browsing and playback system for broadcast TV programmes. In developing the six browsing interfaces, we have been informed by the various dimensions which can be used to distinguish one interface from another. For thi...

We present a new four-dimensional phase unwrapping approach for time-lapse quantitative phase microscopy, which allows reconstruction of optically thick objects that are optically thin in a certain temporal point and angular view. We thus use all four dimensions of the dynamic quantitative phase profile acquired, including the angular dimension and the temporal dimension, in addition to the x-y...

We develop a new indexing structure and a new out-of-core scheme to extract and render isosurfaces for large scale time-varying 3-D volume data. The new algorithm enables the fast visualization of arbitrary isosurfaces cut by a user-specified hyperplane along any of the four dimensions. Our data structure makes use of the entropy measure to establish the relative resolutions of the spatial and ...

According to current theories in discourse research, readers monitor a series of 5 situational dimensions during narrative comprehension (Zwaan, Langston, & Graesser, 1995; Zwaan & Radvansky, 1998). These dimensions are time (e.g., the order of events), space (e.g., locations), protagonist (e.g., main character actions), causality (e.g., how one event influences another event), and intentionali...

This chapter introduces spatial dimensions and measures as a means of enhancing decision support systems with spatial capabilities. By some way or other, spatial related data has been used for a long time; however, spatial dimensions have not been fully exploited. It is presented a data model that tightly integrates Data Warehouse and Geographical Information Systems ⎯ so characterizing a Spati...
