日本データベース学会の皆様 ACM SIGMOD日本支部の皆様 東大の有川です． 10月24-28日にオーストリアのKlagenfurtで開催される ER2005に併設されるワークショップのお知らせです。 奮ってご投稿ください。 ++++++++++++++++++++++++ Call For Papers 2nd International Workshop on Conceptual Modeling for Geographic Information Systems (CoMoGIS2005) http://www.cs.ucd.ie/comogis05/ In Conjunction with ER2005, October 24-28, Klagenfurt, Austria Purpose and Scope The recent advances in remote sensing and GPS technologies have increased the production and collection of geo-referenced data, thus requiring the rapid development and the wide deployment of various geographic information systems. With the popularity of the World Wide Web and the diversity of GISs on the Internet, geographic information can now be available via personal devices anytime and anywhere. Nowadays GIS is emerging as a common information infrastructure, which penetrates into more and more aspects of our society, and converges with most areas in the IT scenario, such as office automation, workflow, digital libraries, Web searching, virtual reality, etc. This has given rise to new challenges related to the development of conceptual models for GIS. Recently several new approaches have been applied in the development of geo-spatial systems to accommodate new user requirements. The workshop on Conceptual Modeling for GIS is intended to bring together researchers, developers, users, and practitioners carrying out research and development in geographic information systems and conceptual modeling, and fostering interdisciplinary discussions in all aspects of these two fields. The workshop will provide a forum for original research contributions and practical experiences of conceptual modeling for GIS and will highlight future trends in this area. Therefore we invite submissions that address theoretical, technical and practical issues of conceptual modeling for GIS. Suggested topics include, but are not limited to (as long as they are related to conceptual modelling in GIS): - Spatial data modeling - Conceptual and logical models for GIS - GIS services modeling - Ontologies for GIS applications - Schema mapping and evolution - Spatial data query and retrieval - Geographical search engines - Spatial information grid - Digital geographical libraries - Query languages and interfaces - Spatial information integration - Spatial information visualisation - Spatial data mining and data warehousing - Location-based services - Peer-to-peer computing for GIS - Semantic issues in GIS - Interoperability and standards - Metadata management - GIS Middleware architectures - Query processing and optimization - Spatio-temporal data modeling Submission guidelines Authors should submit original manuscripts via email to Dr. Michela Bertolotto (michela.bertolotto@ucd.ie), as PDF files by June 20, 2005. The ER2005 Workshop papers will be published by Springer-Verlag in the LNCS series. Springer-Verlag publishes a full-text electronic version of LNCS in parallel with the printed version, thus the electronic source of accepted papers is required (Springer-Verlag strongly prefers the LaTeX 2e format, but Word format is acceptable). See the Springer site: http://www.springeronline.com/sgw/cda/frontpage/0,10735,5-164-2-72376-0,00.h... for author instructions. Please follow the author instructions carefully. The page limit is 10 pages. We strongly suggest all authors to stick to the page limit. Please note that final papers which do not conform to these guidelines will not be published.
