In this paper, we study designing different threshold protocols that are used to monitor a set of moving objects in k-means computation at a server. In a given data set P, a k-means query returns k points in space, such that average squared distance between each point in p and its nearest center is minimized. Reevaluating k-means every time there is an object update imposes heavy burden on the server and the clients where it reduces the computation and communication costs. The proposed method assigns each moving object a threshold and uses multiple servers for monitoring locations of distinct set of objects and their updates when it crosses the range boundary.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
