The biennial Conference on Innovative Data Systems Research (CIDR) is a systems-oriented conference, complementary in its mission to the mainstream database conferences like SIGMOD or VLDB, emphasizing the system architecture perspective rather than mathematical models or algorithmic methods.

The format of CIDR 2009 will be somewhat different than in past years. There were two submission tracks, and the accepted papers will appear in the published record in two separate electronic publications:

1. Proceedings of CIDR (Academic Peer Review): This is a traditional conference proceedings for peer-reviewed scholarly papers.  Nineteen papers were accepted by the Program Committee, out of 70 submitted. 

2. CIDR Perspectives (Editorial Selections): This track is a venue for technical presentations to inform and provoke discussion in the research community. Nineteen submissions were selected by the Program Chairs under the advisement of the Program Committee.  Selections were made with an eye toward providing a diversity of topics.  Perspectives papers were not competitively peer-reviewed, and are not intended to be part of the academic record.

The list of selected papers for both tracks is included below.


CIDR 2009 will be held January 4-7 at the Asilomar Conference Grounds in Pacific Grove, CA.  Space is limited.  Registration information is available at http://www-db.cs.wisc.edu/cidr/cidr2009/

We hope to see you there.

Joe Hellerstein, Gerhard Weikum and Michael Franklin
Conference Chairs
