The ICDE 2005 International Conference on Data Engineering provides a premier forum for: - sharing research solutions to problems of today's information society - exposing practicing engineers to evolving research, tools, and practices, and providing them with an early opportunity to evaluate these - raising awareness in the research community the problems of practical data engineering applications - promoting the exchange of data engineering technologies and experience among researchers and practicing engineers - identifying new issues and directions for future research and development work. Welcome to Tokyo ---------------- The conference will be held in Tokyo, the capital city of Japan. Tokyo is also the most populous metropolitan area in the world. From its establishment in 1603 to the end of the 19th century, Tokyo prospered as a castle town called Edo. Tokyo still remains as an exciting and attractive city that is constantly developing. Yet despite its complex urban landscape and impressive architecture, this city abounds with parks and gardens. Particularly in the spring season, blooming cherry blossoms will welcome you to Tokyo. Well-known sites close to Tokyo include the Great Buddha statue at Kamakura and the scenic Mt. Fuji. Research Paper Submissions -------------------------- ICDE 2005 invites research submissions on all topics related to data engineering, including but not limited to those listed below (the corresponding area chairs are listed at the end of this preliminary call for papers): 1. Database System Internals and Performance 2. Query Processing and Optimization 3. Data Warehouse, OLAP, and Statistical Databases 4. Mining Data, Text and Web 5. Semi-structured Data and XML 6.
