Topics

Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):

• - Core database technologies (e.g., query processing and optimization, database concurrency control).
• - Non-traditional data management architectures (e.g., data stream management, computational clouds, peer-to-peer systems, replica management).
• - Data management applications (e.g., Web mashups, social networks, geographical information systems, location-based services, scientific databases, sensor networks, crowd-sourcing).
• - Models and languages for the management of data (e.g., XML, RDF, probabilistic databases, meta-data management, multi-media, graph data management).
• - Techniques for high performance and scalability in the management of data (e.g., indexing, hardware accelerators, new hardware technologies).
• - Other aspects of modern information systems (e.g., security, privacy, user interfaces, energy use minimization).
• - Information retrieval and data mining
