For this : reason the time slot of long and short contributions is 60 and 30 minutes, : respectively, followed by 30 and 15 minutes for discussions, respectively. : : In addition, there is a special session for the presentation and discussion : of open research problems. Database and information systems research : discussed : in most conferences is oriented towards hot topics. The old research problems : are remaining still open. In order to discuss these problems conferences need : to have larger slots for discussing issues. Also in this sense, FOIKS aims to : take up the old tradition of the conference series ``Mathematical : Fundamentals of Database Systems'' (MFDBS) which enabled East-West : collaboration in the : field of database theory (Springer LNCS 305, 364, 495). The open problems : session will be based on the open problems collection obtained during : MFDBS.

Nowadays, this is an accessible convergent point on which a : lot of researchers are focusing, mainly due to the large progress of : research in natural language and to the development of new technologies : which : allow the storage of real semantic electronic dictionaries. Each aspect : of an information system life cycle may be improved by natural language : techniques: database design (specification, validation, conflict : resolution), : database query languages and application programming that use new : software engineering : research (e.g. natural language program specifications). As information : systems are now evolving into the communication area, the term databases : should : be considered in the broader sense of information and communication : systems. : : SETTING: Versailles is an historical city famous for its palace and : gardens.
