The first version of FESTIval was published in:
This version only encompasses the implementation of the following disk-based spatial indices: the R-tree and the R*-tree.
FESTIval has been used as the main tool to understand the impact of SSDs on the spatial indexing context, as described in:
FESTIval has also been employed to measure the performance of gains of eFIND, a generic and efficient framework that transforms a disk-based spatial index into a flash-aware spatial index (e.g., transforms an R-tree to an eFIND R-tree). eFIND is described in:
FESTIval also provides support for flash simulators (e.g., FlashDBSim) when analyzing the performance of spatial indices, such as reported in:
- Carniel, A. C.; Silva, T. B.; Bonicenha, K. L. S.; Ciferri, R. R.; Ciferri, C. D. A. Analyzing the Performance of Spatial Indices on Flash Memories using a Flash Simulator. In Proceedings of the 32nd Brazilian Symposium on Databases (SBBD), p. 40-51, 2017.
- Carniel, A. C.; Silva, T. B.; Ciferri, C. D. A. Understanding the Applicability of Flash Simulators on the Experimental Evaluation of Spatial Indices. In 9th Annual Non-volatile Memories Workshop (NVMW), p. 1-2, 2018.
In order to facilitate the execution of experiments, FESTIval provides default spatial datasets. These datasets are available here and are specified in:
Originally, FESTIval has been developed in the context of a Ph.D. work. The main goals of this Ph.D. work are described in:
- Carniel, A. C.; Ciferri, C. D. A. Spatial Indexing in Flash Memories: Proposal of an Efficient and Robust Spatial Index with Durability. In Proceedings of the Satellite Events of the 31st Brazilian Symposium on Databases (SBBD), p. 66-73, 2016.
- Carniel, A. C. Spatial Indexing on Flash-based Solid State Drives. In Proceedings of the VLDB 2018 PhD Workshop, p. 1-4, 2018.
