     June 30th - July 3rd 2010, Ayia Napa, Cyprus		
		
        http://www.cs.ucy.ac.cy/~hdms2010/en		
           		
      Paper submission deadline: April 15th, 2010		
      		
       --------------------------------------		
	
The Hellenic Data Management Symposium (HDMS) is the annual forum	
for  the  Greek database community  to present and discuss recent	
advances  in the data management field. After a successful series	
of  eight events  held since 2002, the 9th symposium will be held	
in Ayia Napa, on Wednesday June 30th to Saturday, July 3rd, 2010.	
	
The program of HDMS 2010 will include research paper presentations,	
tutorials,  invited talks, demos and panels. The key criterion in	
judging submissions is that of technical content. As such, papers	
recently   accepted  for   presentation   in  top   international	
conferences  may be  also submitted  to HDMS  and considered  for	
inclusion in the unofficial HDMS proceedings.	
		
TOPICS OF INTEREST	
==================	
Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):	
• Core database technologies (query processing and optimization,	
  concurrency control, etc), as well as non-traditional data	
  management architectures (e.g., data stream management, P2P,	
  replication, and caching)	
• Data management applications (e.g., Web mashups, social networks,	
  scientific databases, sensor networks, etc.)	
• Models and languages for the management of data (e.g., XML, 	
  probabilistic data models, meta-data management, multi-media, etc.)	
• Techniques to achieve performance and scalability in the management 	
  of data (e.g., indexing, hardware accelerators, etc.)	
• Other aspects of modern information systems such as security, 	
  privacy, personalization, user interfaces, etc.	
	
The primary criterion for selecting submitted papers will be 
technical depth, with second criterion novelty.

Research   papers   must  be  submitted  electronically  in  PDF.	
Please visit the HDMS'10 web site (http://www.cs.ucy.ac.cy/~hdms2010/)	
to  access  the paper  submission system.  Novel papers should be	
formatted  according  to  the  official  ACM  Proceedings  format	
(available at: http://www.acm.org/sigs/pubs/proceed/template.html)	
and  should not exceed twelve (12) pages. Papers already accepted	
for presentation in top international conferences can be submitted	
to HDMS in their original format.	
	
To   help  the  Greek  community  form  a  consistent  corpus  of	
terminological terms, all accepted papers, must be accompanied by	
(i)  title,  and (ii) abstract  in GREEK. This information is not	
required  for the  submission;  still,  corresponding authors  of	
accepted papers should provide the PC chair with these data.	
	
Proposals   for   tutorials,   panels  and   research   prototype	
demonstrations   should   either  be  in  their  original  format	
(if   already   accepted  in  major  database  conferences),  or,	
they   should   not  exceed   two   (2)   pages,  including   the	
speakers,   panelists,   and   the   general   concept   of   the	
proposal.
