"For researchers and professionals in the field of databases, this is a must-read text that gives them right up-to-the-minute information on their field. Its 479 pages represent the refereed proceedings of the 10th International Symposium on Spatial and Temporal Databases, held in Boston, USA in July 2007. The 26 revised full papers were thoroughly reviewed and selected from a total of 76 submissions. This makes them, essentially, the distilled wisdom of numerous leading researchers and academics in the field. The papers are classified in numerous categories, each corresponding to a conference session. This makes the book a well structured and easy to reference volume. Topics covered include continuous monitoring; indexing and query processing; and mining. There are papers too that deal with aggregation and interpolation; semantics and modeling; and privacy. Also covered are crucial topics such as uncertainty and approximation; streaming data; distributed systems; and spatial networks. This work comes with online files as well as updates."--Publisher's website
