Abstract
Distributed moving object database servers offer a feasible solution to the scalability problems of centralized database systems. In these potentially large-scale systems, querying about the time-varying location of specific moving objects can be particularly expensive in terms of running time. This work proposes a meta-index based strategy that can significantly speed up the processing of these queries. The meta-index acts as an entry point for spatio-temporal queries and quickly drives the search process to the database servers that contain solutions. It also enables very fast approximated solutions to queries such as top- k and spatio-temporal range queries.
