Discovering Co-located Queries in Geographic Search Logs

by Xiangye Xiao, Longhao Wang, Xing Xie, Qiong Luo
"... A geographic search request contains a query consisting of one or more keywords, and a search-location that the user searches for. In this paper, we study the problem of discovering co-located queries, which are geographic search requests for nearby search-locations. One example co-located query pat ..."

M.: Spatio-textual indexing for geographical search on the web

by Subodh Vaid, Christopher B. Jones, Hideo Joho, Mark S - SSTD. Volume 3633 of Lecture Notes in Computer Science , 2005
"... Abstract. Many web documents refer to specific geographic localities and many people include geographic context in queries to web search engines. Standard web search engines treat the geographical terms in the same way as other terms. This can result in failure to find relevant documents that refer ..."

Nearest neighbor queries.

by Nick Roussopoulos , Stephen Kelley , Fr Ed , Eric Vincent - ACM SIGMOD Record, , 1995
"... Abstract A frequently encountered type of query in Geographic Information Systems is to nd the k nearest neighbor objects to a given point in space. Processing such queries requires substantially di erent search algorithms than those for location or range queries. In this paper we present a n e cie ..."

Exhaustive geographic search with mobile robots along spacefilling curves

by Shannon V. Spires, Steven Y. Goldsmith - In Proceedings of the First International Workshop on Collective Robotics , 1998
"... Abstract. Swarms of mobile robots can be tasked with searching a geographic region for targets of interest, such as buried land mines. We assume that the individual robots are equipped with sensors tuned to the targets of interest, that these sensors have limited range, and that the robots can commu ..."

On Calculating Connected Dominating Set for Efficient Routing in Ad Hoc Wireless Networks

by Jie Wu, et al. , 1999
"... Efficient routing among a set of mobile hosts (also called nodes) is one of the most important functions in ad-hoc wireless networks. Routing based on a connected dominating set is a frequently used approach, where the searching space for a route is reduced to nodes in the set. A set is dominating i ..."
