Call for Papers
The Web is rapidly evolving into a ubiquitous
computing platform for a new generation of information systems.
Increasingly, Web applications strive to manage data, documents
or application services, spread worldwide and accessed through
diverse devices from heterogeneous environments. The requirements
of these applications as well as emerging technologies, such as
the Semantic Web and Web services, have created new challenges
and opportunities for database technology. This new landscape
has compelled the database community to revisit its approach to
data models, query languages, storage support, query optimization,
as well as, data and application services integration. It also
demands that database research further interact with information
retrieval, programming languages, artificial intelligence, distributed
computing, workflows, and other areas of Computer Science.
The WebDB workshop focuses on promoting
novel research directions and providing a forum where researchers,
theoreticians, and practitioners can share their knowledge and
opinions about problems and solutions at the intersection of data
management and the Web.
