Abstract: A method of processing top-k (k is a natural number) query in array data is described. The method of processing the top-k query is performed in a computing device including at least a processor, and includes dividing an array including a plurality of cells into a plurality of partitions, and finding an ith answer in the array.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method of processing top-k (k is a natural number) query in array data. The method of processing the top-k query is performed in a computing device including at least a processor, and includes dividing an array including a plurality of cells into a plurality of partitions and finding an ith answer in the array.

Abstract: A mobile communication system process a query of a location-based service. More particularly, an apparatus and a method reduce communication processes for an unnecessary query by expanding a resident domain with a query type. The apparatus includes a server for expanding a resident domain comprising a query to be operated by the moving object when the location-based service is used and the moving object for reducing the number of communications with the server according to the expansion of the resident domain.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for recognizing a motion pattern formed by a continued contact surface. A method for recognizing a motion patter according to an embodiment of the invention may comprise receiving a motion pattern as input from a user, comparing pattern information of the motion pattern with pattern information of a preset release pattern, and determining a mismatch level of the motion pattern according to the comparison result. According to an embodiment of the invention, if an inputted motion pattern does not match the preset release pattern, the degree of mismatch is determined with different levels, to respond in various ways other than simply maintaining the locked state.
