| Abstract | Metric space searching is an emerging technique to address the problem of efficient similarity searching in many applications, including multimedia databases and other repositories handling complex objects. Although promising, the metric space approach is still immature in several aspects that are well established in traditional databases. In particular, most indexing schemes are static, that is, few of them tolerate insertion or deletion of elements at reasonable cost over an existing index. The spatial approximation tree $(\textit{sa--tree})$ has been experimentally shown to provide a good tradeoff between construction cost, search cost, and space requirement. However, the $\textit{sa--tree}$ is static, which renders it unsuitable for many database applications. In this paper, we study different methods to handle insertions and deletions on the $\textit{sa--tree}$ at low cost. In many cases, the dynamic construction (by successive insertions) is even faster than the previous static construction, and both are similar elsewhere. In addition, the dynamic version significantly improves the search performance of $\textit{sa--trees}$ in virtually all cases. The result is a much more practical data structure that can be useful in a wide range of database applications. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
