日本データベース学会の皆様 SIGMOD日本支部の皆様 来年３月に韓国済州島で開催されるDASFAA2004国際会議ですが，general chairの KAISTのProf. Kyu-Young Whangから下記のようなうれしい悲鳴のメールが届きました ので，Japan Area Chairの小生より皆様にご披露申し上げます． ---すごい激戦になります，PCの方，頑張ってください． 増永良文 お茶の水女子大学 ＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋ Dear Colleagues, The program co-chairs reported that 334 abstracts have been submitted to DASFAA2004. This is a tremendous success, constituting more than 100% increase over previous years(typically 120-150). Among them, we have 137 abstracts from Korea (approx. 41%), which indicates a lot of interest from Korea, and 197 abstracts from all over the world. I would like to thank many people who contributed to this remarkable result--especially, the PC co-chairs and Publication chair who drafted the CFP, and the Publicity co-chairs who distributed the CFP to every possible place they can find, and Geographic Area Chairs, who encouraged their colleagues in the responsible regions to submit papers. Thanks again to every one of you, and let us make together DASFAA2004 a big success! Best Regards, Kyu-Young ＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋＋ --- 増永良文 お茶の水女子大学 理学部情報科学科 〒112−8610 東京都文京区大塚2−1−1 Tel & Fax 03(5978)5707 携帯電話 090-4929-7030 http://www.dblab.is.ocha.ac.jp --- Dr. Yoshifumi MASUNAGA Professor Department of Information Science Ochanomizu University 2-1-1 Otsuka, Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo 112-8610, Japan Phone & Fax +81-3-5978-5707 Handy Phone +81-90-4929-7030 http://www.dblab.is.ocha.ac.jp
