A continuous skyline query involves both static and dynamic dimensions. In the dynamic dimension, the data object not only has a distance from the query object, but it also has a direction with respect to the query object motion. In this paper, we propose a direction-oriented continuous skyline query algorithm to compute the skyline objects with respect to the current position of the user. The goal of the proposed algorithm is to help the user to retrieve the best objects that satisfy his/her constraints and fall either in any direction around the query object, or is aligned along the object’s direction of motion. We also create a pre-computed skyline data set that facilitates skyline update, and enhances query running time and performance. Finally, we present experimental results to demonstrate the performance and efficiency of our proposed algorithmsenOctober University for University for Skyline queriescontinuous query processingmoving object databasesdirection-based skyline queriesBook chapterhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-34679-8_2
