We present a mathematical model of multimedia data streams and a framework for multimedia functional dependency analysis. The dual objectives are to effectively design multimedia data streams schema and to efficiently process continuous queries on sensor-based multimedia data streams. To further improve query processing, we introduce the concept of ontological filtering. A software tool to add multimedia functional dependencies to ontology is developed. Based upon multimedia functional dependency analysis and ontological filtering, query processing algorithms, illustrative examples and experimental results for sensor-based multimedia data streams continuous querying are presented to demonstrate the practical applications of our approach.

Abstract
We present a mathematical model of multimedia data streams and a framework for multimedia functional dependency analysis. The dual objectives are to effectively design multimedia data streams schema and to efficiently process continuous queries on sensor-based multimedia data streams. To further improve query processing, we introduce the concept of ontological filtering. A software tool to add multimedia functional dependencies to ontology is developed. Based upon multimedia functional dependency analysis and ontological filtering, query processing algorithms, illustrative examples and experimental results for sensor-based multimedia data streams continuous querying are presented to demonstrate the practical applications of our approach.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
