R-Trees: Theory and Applications Paperback / softback
by Yannis Manolopoulos, Alexandros Nanopoulos, Apostolos N. Papadopoulos, Yannis Theodoridis
Part of the Advanced Information and Knowledge Processing series
Paperback / softback
Description
Space support in databases poses new challenges in every part of a database management system & the capability of spatial support in the physical layer is considered very important.
This has led to the design of spatial access methods to enable the effective & efficient management of spatial objects.
R-trees have a simplicity of structure & together with their resemblance to the B-tree, allow developers to incorporate them easily into existing database management systems for the support of spatial query processing. This book provides an extensive survey of the R-tree evolution, studying the applicability of the structure & its variations to efficient query processing, accurate proposed cost models, & implementation issues like concurrency control and parallelism.
Written for database researchers, designers & programmers as well as graduate students, this comprehensive monograph will be a welcome addition to the field.
