Continuous Query Processing for Mobile Users
Journal Title: UNKNOWN - Year 2012, Vol 1, Issue 2
Abstract
In this paper, we propose an efficient and scalable query processing framework for continuous spatial queries (range and k-nearest-neighbor queries) in mobile peer-to-peer (P2P) environments, where no fixed communication infrastructure or centralized/distributed servers are available. Due to the limitations in mobile P2P environment s[1], for example, user mobility, limited battery power, limited communication range, and scarce communication bandwidth, it is costly to maintain the exact answer of continuous spatial queries. To this end, our framework enables the user to find an approximate answer with quality guarantees. In particular, we design two key features to adapt continuous spatial query processing to mobile P2P environments. (1) Each mobile user can specify the desired quality of services (QoS) for query answers in a personalized QoS profile. The QoS profile consists of two parameters, namely, coverage and accuracy. The coverage parameter indicates the desired level of completeness of the available information for computing an approximate answer, and the accuracy parameter indicates the desired level of accuracy of the approximate answer. (2) We design a continuous answer maintenance scheme to enable the user to collaborate with other peers to continuously maintain her query answer. With these two features in our framework, the user can obtain a query answer from her local cache if the answer satisfies her QoS[2] requirements. Otherwise, the user enlists neighbors for help to share their cached information to refine the answer. If the re_ned answer still cannot satisfy the QoS requirements, the user broadcasts the query to the peers residing within the required search area of the query to find the most accurate answer. Experimental results show that our framework is efficient and scalable andprovides an effective tradeoff between the communication overhead and the quality of query answers.
