Processing Proximity Relations in Road Networks

Summary: Defines three proximity relations to model queries on moving objects in road networks. Introduces a moving-object index and road-network partitioning that confines computation to a partial road network, yielding >95% overhead reduction and ~20× speedup vs baselines.
