title: Skyline Query Processing creator: Rost, Steffen Thomas subject: ddc-004 subject: 004 Data processing Computer science description: This thesis deals with a special subset of multi-dimensional set of points, called the Skyline. These points are the maxima or minima of the complete set and are of special interest for the field of decision support. Coming from basic algorithms for computing the Skyline we will develop ideas and algorithms for "on-the-fly" or online computation of the Skyline. We will also extend the concept of Skyline with new application domains leading us to user profiling with the help of Skyline. date: 2006 type: Dissertation type: info:eu-repo/semantics/doctoralThesis type: NonPeerReviewed format: application/pdf identifier: https://archiv.ub.uni-heidelberg.de/volltextserverhttps://archiv.ub.uni-heidelberg.de/volltextserver/6937/1/diss_publ_2006_10_15.pdf identifier: DOI:10.11588/heidok.00006937 identifier: urn:nbn:de:bsz:16-opus-69374 identifier: Rost, Steffen Thomas (2006) Skyline Query Processing.
