CALL FOR PAPERS
22nd International Conference on
Scientific and Statistical Database Management (SSDBM 2010)
June 30 - July 2, 2010
Heidelberg, Germany
http://www.ssdbm2010.org
DEADLINES: Jan 8th (abstracts), Jan 15th (papers: regular, short/demo)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
The SSDBM conference series focuses on concepts, tools, and techniques for
scientific and statistical database applications. The 2010 meeting marks the
22nd time that scientific domain experts, database researchers, practitioners
and developers will come together to share new insights and to discuss future
research directions in a stimulating environment. The conference will consist of
a single track of presentations, including invited talks, peer-reviewed papers,
system and tool demonstrations, and panel discussions. The conference
proceedings will be published as a volume in Springer's Lecture Notes in
Computer Science (LNCS) series.
We solicit full papers (up to 18 pages LNCS style) describing original work not
published or under review elsewhere. Papers selected after peer review will be
included in the conference proceedings and presented orally at the conference.
We also invite short papers (up to 9 pages LNCS style) describing systems and
software demonstrations or discussing new ideas or work in an early stage.
Accepted short papers will be featured in poster-and-demonstration sessions and
also included in the proceedings!
Topics of particular interest include (but are not limited to):
* Modeling and representation of data, metadata, ontologies, and processes for
scientific application domains
* Integration and exchange of scientific data
* Design, implementation, and optimization of scientific workflows
* Cyberinfrastructure architectures and components for scientific computing and
eScience, including Web portals, repositories, and digital libraries
* System architectures in support of scientific data management and analysis,
including distributed, parallel, and Grid architectures
* Management and querying of scientific data, including spatial, temporal,
spatio-temporal, and streaming data
* Annotation and provenance of scientific and statistical data
* Mining and analysis of large-scale scientific datasets
* Security, privacy, and trust for scientific and statistical data
* Visualization and exploration of large-scale scientific datasets
* Case studies and applications related to scientific data management in all domains
