--- C A L L F O R P A P E R S --- 9th Hellenic Data Management Symposium (HDMS 2010) 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. IMPORTANT DATES =============== Paper submissions due, Proposals for panels and tutorials: Thursday, April 15th, 2010 Notification of acceptance: Thursday, May 20th, 2010 Camera-ready due date: Thursday, June 3rd, 2010 Symposium dates: Wednesday, June 30th - Saturday, July 3rd, 2010 SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS ======================= 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.
