THERE IS NO SEPARATE ABSTRACT SUBMISSION PHASE.


Workshop Overview
-----------------

The objective of this one-day workshop is to investigate opportunities in
accelerating data management systems and workloads (which include traditional
OLTP, data warehousing/OLAP, ETL, Streaming/Realtime, and XML/RDF Processing)
using CPU (e.g., commodity and specialized Multi-core, Many-core, GPUs, and
FPGAs), storage systems (e.g., Storage-class Memories like SSDs and
Phase-change Memory), and multicore programming strategies like OpenCL.
The workshop hopes to explore the interplay between overall system design, core
algorithms, query optimization strategies, programming approaches, performance
modelling and evaluation, from the perspective of data management applications.


Topics of Interest
------------------

The suggested topics of interest include, but are not restricted to:

* Hardware and System Issues in Domain-specific Accelerators
* New Programming Methodologies for Data Management Problems on Modern Hardware
* Query Processing for Hybrid Architectures
* Autonomic Tuning for Data Management Workloads on Hybrid Architectures
* Algorithms for Accelerating Multi-modal Multi-tiered Systems
* Energy Efficient Software-Hardware Co-design for Data Management Workloads
* Parallelizing non-traditional (e.g., graph mining) workloads
* Algorithms and Performance Models for modern Storage Sub-systems
* Data Layout Issues for Modern Memory and Storage Hierarchies
* New Benchmarking Methodologies for Storage-class Memories

Questions about the conference scope should be directed to the program
co-chairs at contact@adms-conf.org.


Submission Instructions
-----------------------

All submissions will be handled electronically. More details are posted on
the web site, http://www.adms-conf.org

The workshop proceedings will be published by VLDB.

It is the authors' responsibility to ensure that their submissions adhere
strictly to the VLDB camera ready format. The paper length is limited to
8 pages. You are permitted a 4 page appendix beyond these 8 pages.
However, reviewers are not required to read this appendix, and the paper
should be self-contained, complete and understandable within the 8 pages.
This 8+4 page rule applies to both submissions and camera-ready.
See http://www.adms-conf.org for more details and links to the VLDB
templates.

Questions about the submission process should be directed to the program
co-chairs at contact@adms-conf.org.
