Given two sets of points P and Q, a group nearest neighbor (GNN) query retrieves the point(s) of P with the smallest sum of distances to all points in Q. Consider, for instance, t...
In high-dimensional and complex metric spaces, determining the nearest neighbor (NN) of a query object ? can be a very expensive task, because of the poor partitioning operated by...
The increasingly popular GPS technology and the growing amount of trajectory data it generates create the need for developing applications that efficiently store and query traject...

In this paper, we consider the following scenario: a set of mobile objects continuously track their positions in a road network and are able to communicate with a central server. ...
The k-anonymity technique is widely used to provide location privacy protection for accessing location-based services (LBS), i.e., the exact location of a query initiator is cloak...
