COMAD's scope includes all areas of data management including Database Management Systems, Web and Information Retrieval, and Data Mining. To encourage participation from junior research colleagues, COMAD 2012 will have a special "Work in Progress" track designed as a forum to present ongoing work and receive feedback. Only the abstracts of submissions in this track will be included in the proceedings of the conference. This will not preclude the authors from submitting the full version of their paper to another conference.
