Querying Continuous Time Sequences
Ling Lin, Tore Risch
Full Paper (PDF)

Abstract
Time sequences appear in various application domains. Many applications require time sequences to be seen as continuous where implicit values can be derived from explicit values by arbitrary user-defined interpolation functions. This paper describes the implementation of an extended SELECT operator, o*, that retrieves implicit values from a discrete time sequence under various user-defined interpolation assumptions. The c* operator is efficiently supported by an indexing technique termed the IP-index. Possible optimizations of the o* operator are investigated and verified byexperiments on SHORE. The o* operator is applicable to any 1-D sequence data.
