In this paper, we propose a 2D based partition method for solving the problem of Ranking under Team Context(RTC) on datasets without a priori. We first map the data into 2D space using its minimum and maximum value among all dimensions. Then we const
ruct window queries with consideration of current team context. Besides, during the query mapping procedure, we can pre-prune some tuples which are not top ranked ones. This pre-classified step will defer processing those tuples and can save cost while providing solutions for the problem. Experiments show that our algorithm performs well especially on large datasets with correctness.
Context-aware database has drawn increasing attention from both industry and academia recently by taking users current situation and environment into consideration. However, most of the literature focus on individual context, overlooking the team use
rs. In this paper, we investigate how to integrate team context into database query process to help the users get top-ranked database tuples and make the team more competitive. We introduce naive and optimized query algorithm to select the suitable records and show that they output the same results while the latter is more computational efficient. Extensive empirical studies are conducted to evaluate the query approaches and demonstrate their effectiveness and efficiency.
