The increasing trend of GPS-enabled smartphones has led to the tremendous usage of Location-Based Service applications. In the past few years, a significant amount of studies have been conducted to process All nearest neighbor (ANN) queries. An ANN query on a road network extracts and returns all the closest data objects for all query objects. Most of the existing studies on ANN queries are performed either in Euclidean space or static road networks. Moreover, combining the nearest neighbor query and join operation is an expensive procedure because it requires computing the distance between each pair of query objects and data objects. This study considers the problem of processing the ANN queries on a dynamic road network where the weight, i.e., the traveling distance and time varies due to various traffic conditions. To address this problem, a shared execution-based approach called standard clustered loop (SCL) is proposed that allows efficient processing of ANN queries on a dynamic road network. The key concept behind the shared execution technique is to exploit the coherence property of road networks by clustering objects that share common paths and processing the cluster as a single path. In an empirical study, the SCL method achieves significantly better performance than competitive methods and efficiently reduces the computational cost to process ANN queries in various problem settings.
