データベースな皆様 モバイルデータ管理国際会議（ＭＤＭ０４）の論文募集を お送りします。投稿をご検討下さい。 喜連川優 acm sigmod Japan chapter chair --------------------------------------------------------- Call for Papers MDM 2004 2004 IEEE International Conference on Mobile Data Management January 19-22, 2004 Berkeley, CA, USA http://www.cs.duke.edu/mdm2004/ Submission deadline June 10, 2003 Notification of acceptance September 10, 2003 Camera ready due October 24, 2003 We are rapidly heading towards a world in which the computing infrastructure will contain billions of devices, which will interact with other computing/communications devices that are carried or worn by users as they go through their daily routines. Such devices provide data access to mobile users as they move within buildings, cities, or across the globe. This new infrastructure presents tremendous challenges for data management technology including: huge scale; variable and intermittent connectivity; location-centric and location-dependent applications; bandwidth, power, and device size limitations; and multimedia data delivery across hybrid networks and systems. Traditional data management technologies such as query processing, transaction management, workflow, business process management and metadata management must all be re-evaluated in this emerging environment. Furthermore, non-traditional issues such as semantics of mobile data, location-dependent querying, broadcast and multicast delivery and caching/pre-fetching techniques must all be addressed. The ability to track/monitor people raises serious issue of security and privacy. This conference aims to investigate these and other issues, focusing on the challenges and opportunities for data management and data access technology in the rapidly evolving world of mobile, pervasive, ubiquitous, invisible and wearable computing. Conference Topics * Theoretical foundations of mobility * Modeling location and mobility semantics * Data management for ubiquitous computing * Metadata management and exchanges * Query processing and optimization for mobile users * Data placement, caching, replication and relocation to support mobility * Resource advertising and discovery techniques to support mobility * Mobile transaction management * Multimedia in a mobile environment * Mobile web access and internet applications * Context aware adaptation of user interface and content * Data mining for mobile application * Mobile aware/adaptive/agent applications * Mobile agent platforms * Middleware support for mobility * Data presentation, scripting and exchange languages * Mobile and ubiquitous computing applications and systems * Workflow management for mobile environments * Operating system and network support for ubiquitous mobile computing * Security and privacy issues for ubiquitous systems * Location dependent user and vehicle tracking * Quality of service management for mobile systems * Adaptability and stability of pervasive computing systems * Data broadcasting in mobile environments Submission Information Both research and industrial papers are solicited. Research papers must be unpublished and not exceed 12 single-spaced pages. Industrial papers must not exceed 6 single-spaced pages and should describe interesting technical aspects of industrial applications, prototypes, experiences, and standards; performance and design details are encouraged and papers only describing high-level system designs are discouraged. Authors are invited to submit their papers electronically through the conference Web site at http://www.cs.duke.edu/mdm2004/ on or before June 10, 2003. PDF format is preferred but postscript format is acceptable. Conference proceedings will be published by IEEE Computer Society Press. We also solicit proposals for panels and tutorials. Proposals must be emailed to the respective chairs by June 10, 2003. Organizing Committee * Conference Co-Chairs Anupam Joshi, University of Maryland Baltimore County, USA Hui Lei, IBM T. J.
