In the planar range skyline reporting problem, we store a set P of n 2D points in a structure such that, given a query rectangle Q = [a_1, a_2] x [b_1, b_2], the maxima (a.k.a. skyline) of P \cap Q can be reported efficiently. The query is…

Let P be a set of n points in R^2. Given a rectangle Q = [\alpha_1, \alpha_2] x [\beta_1, \beta_2], a range skyline query returns the maxima of the points in P \cap Q. An important variant is the so-called top-open queries, where Q is a…
The B-tree is a fundamental secondary index structure that is widely used for answering one-dimensional range reporting queries. Given a set of $N$ keys, a range query can be answered in $O(\log_B \nm + \frac{K}{B})$ I/Os, where $B$ is the…
For a set $P$ of $n$ points in the plane and a value $r > 0$, the unit-disk range reporting problem is to construct a data structure so that given any query disk of radius $r$, all points of $P$ in the disk can be reported efficiently. We…
