Joint EDBT/ICDT Ph.D. Workshop 2011 Uppsala, Sweden, March 25, 2011 http://www.ai4.uni-bayreuth.de/en/events/edbt_icdt_phd_2011/index.html ******************************************************* *** Please forward this call to your Ph.D. Students *** ******************************************************* ---Updates--- o Deadline extension! New deadline: January 17th, 2011 o Submission site open! ---Introduction--- The joint EDBT/ICDT Ph.D. Workshop is intended to bring together Ph.D. students working on topics related to the EDBT and the ICDT conference series. The workshop will offer Ph.D. students the opportunity to present, discuss, and receive feedback on their research in a constructive and international atmosphere. The workshop will be accompanied by prominent professors and researchers in the field of database technology and theory. These accompanying professors will participate actively and contribute to the discussions. The workshop is co-located with and will take place immediately after the EDBT/ICDT 2011 joint conference in Uppsala, Sweden. The workshop language is English. ---Topics of Interest--- As for the EDBT/ICDT conferences series, all topics from the field of database technology and theory are of interest for the Ph.D. Workshop. These topics include (but are not limited to): o Active Databases o Information Integration Methods o Advanced Query Processing o IT-Infrastructure Management and and Optimization Enterprise Modeling o Ambient-aware Database Applications o Legacy Databases o Approximate Queries o Logic and Databases o Authorization and Security o Medical Databases and Data Management o Autonomic Databases o Mobile Computing and Databases o Biological Databases and o Multimedia Databases Bioinformatics o Object-Relational Database Systems o Component-based Information Systems o Parallel and Distributed Databases o Constraint and Rule Management o Peer-to-Peer and Networked Databases o Data Management in Computer Games o Privacy Techniques for Databases o Data Models and Database Design o Query Languages and User Interfaces o Data Warehousing and OLAP o Real-Time Database Systems o Data Mining and Knowledge o Replication, Caching, Materialized Discovery Views o Database Applications and o Scientific and Statistical Databases Experiences o Self-healing Databases o Database Performance and Benchmarks o Semantic Web Databases and Ontologies o E-Commerce, Workflow, and Databases o Semi-structured Data, Metadata and XML o Federated Databases, Middleware, o Spatial and Temporal Databases and Interoperability o Stream Processing, Continuous Queries, o Knowledge Management Systems and Sensor Databases o Geographic Information Systems o Text Storage and Retrieval o Imprecise and Uncertain Information o Transactions and Recovery o Indexing, Access Methods and o Trustworthy Databases Data Structures o World-Wide Web and Databases o In-Memory Databases o NoSQL Databases ---Submission--- Papers describing doctoral work should be submitted in PDF or PostScript format before 24.00 CET (Central European Time) on January 17th, 2011. The paper length must not exceed 6 pages (including all parts!). The submission has to be formatted according to the EDBT Conference manuscript preparation guidelines (http://edbticdt2011.it.uu.se/EDBT-CFP.html). Workshop and paper language is English. Please submit your paper using the Confious system: http://submissions.confious.com/index.php?conf=149-NSKL-d1025604 In contrast to regular conference papers, submissions should address specifically doctoral work! Therefore, the following elements are recommended: - A clear formulation of the research question. - An identification of the significant problems in the field of research. - An outline of the current knowledge of the problem domain, as well as the state of existing solutions. - A presentation of any preliminary ideas, the proposed approach and the results achieved so far. - A sketch of the applied research methodology. - A description of the Ph.D. project's contribution to the problem solution. - A discussion of how the suggested solution is different, new, or better as compared to existing approaches to the problem. Please note, that similar to a Ph.D. thesis, only a single author is allowed per submission to the EDBT/ICDT Ph.D. workshop. If several Ph.D. students, usually working together as a team, want to submit, every team member has to submit individually. The Ph.D. advisor is not stated as co-author. The intention of this workshop is to support and inspire Ph.D. students during their ongoing research efforts. Therefore, it is necessary that authors will have neither achieved their Ph.D. degree nor officially submitted their thesis before the Ph.D workshop (March 25, 2011). To enforce this rule we require authors to disclose their expected graduation date and their advisor's name when submitting. Ph.D. students that have already published significant parts of their work at some other major conference (e.g. SIGMOD, VLDB, ER, ICDE, etc.) are asked to step back and offer other Ph.D. students the opportunity to discuss their research topics. Accepted submissions will be published in the workshop proceedings. Furthermore, we plan to publish post-workshop proceedings of selected and revised submissions in the ACM Digital Library, as we did in the last years. Once again, we plan to award a prize for the best submission. Participants should register for the EDBT/ICDT conference itself at student rate. ---Program Committee (preliminary) --- * Michael Benedikt * Angela Bonifati * Stavros Christodoulakis * Olivier Curé * Suzanne Embury * Georgios Evangelidis * Minos Garofalakis * Wook-Shin Han * Theo Härder * Jan Hidders * Stefan Jablonski * Wolfgang Lehner * Marco Mesiti * Mohamed Mokbel * Erich Neuhold * Boris Novikov * Beng Chin Ooi * Dimitris Plexousakis * Andreas Reuter * Marc H.
