    Abstract

    In a recent paper [2] we gave query strategies for minimizing
    the ply of the potential locations of a set of
    moving entities. We extend our results to the case
    where the entities have dierent maximum speeds.
    We present a query strategy that can achieve ply
    O(k) when we have at least 2n time, the intrinsic
    ply of the entities is , and the speeds of the entities
    fall into k speed classes. Furthermore, we show that
    for every query strategy there is a set of n entities for
    which the strategy achieves ply
    (k). Hence, our
    results are optimal up to a constant factor.
    We present our query strategy for entities moving in
    R1. However, our results extend to higher dimensions.
