Call for Papers
---------------
Track "Warehousing and OLAPing Complex, Spatial and Spatio-Temporal 
Data" (http://si.deis.unical.it/~cuzzocrea/WOCD2010/) of the LNCS 14th 
East-European Conference on Advances in Databases and Information 
Systems (ADBIS 2010) (http://perun.im.ns.ac.yu/adbis2010/index.php), 
September 20-24, 2010, Novi Sad, Serbia.

Selected papers from the session will be invited for submission to a 
special issue of Fundamenta Informaticae 
(http://fi.mimuw.edu.pl/index.php/FI), IOS Press (http://www.iospress.nl/).

Aim and Scope
-------------
Complex, spatial and spatio-temporal data arise in a plethora of modern 
database and data mining applications and complex information systems.  
Complex, spatial and spatio-temporal data require more and more for 
effective and efficient models, algorithms and techniques for 
representing, managing, querying, indexing and discovering useful 
knowledge beyond such kind of data. A successful solution to issues 
above consists in applying well-consolidated methodologies coming from 
the Data Warehousing and OLAP research area. This allows us to take 
advantages from several nice amenities supported by Data Warehousing and 
OLAP, such as multidimensional and multi-resolution representation and 
analysis, multidimensional aggregations, hierarchy-based data 
representation and mining, complex query answering tools, and so forth. 
Application fields where Data Warehousing and OLAP over complex, spatial 
and spatio-temporal data have already demonstrated their success are 
many-fold. Among these, an unrestricted list is the following one:

Warehousing and OLAPing Complex Database Objects; Warehousing and 
OLAPing  Objects derived from Software Systems; Warehousing and OLAPing 
Data Streams; Warehousing and OLAPing Sensor Network Data; Warehousing 
and OLAPing RFID Data; Warehousing and OLAPing Sequence Data; 
Warehousing and OLAPing Graph Data; Warehousing and OLAPing Sample Data; 
Warehousing and OLAPing Text Data; Warehousing and OLAPing Spatial Data; 
Warehousing and OLAPing GIS Data; Warehousing and OLAPing Temporal Data; 
Warehousing and OLAPing Multi-Granularity Temporal Data; Warehousing and 
OLAPing Time Series Data; Warehousing and OLAPing Real-Time Data; 
Warehousing and OLAPing Trajectory Data; Warehousing and OLAPing 
Spatio-Temporal Data; Warehousing and OLAPing Multi-Resolution Data;

OLAPing Ontological Datasets; Warehousing and OLAPing Hierarchical Data; 
Warehousing and OLAPing Heterogenous-In-Nature Data; Warehousing and 
OLAPing Scientific Data; Warehousing and OLAPing Microarray Data;

Results; Warehousing and OLAPing Probabilistic Data; Warehousing and

Distributed Data; Warehousing and OLAPing P2P Data; Warehousing and 
OLAPing Grid Datasets; Warehousing and OLAPing Cloud Datasets; 
Warehousing and OLAPing Mobile Data.

As orthogonal to these emerging research contexts, a number of research 
challenges are capturing the attention of a large community of 
researchers. Among these, we recall: models, algorithms and techniques 
for warehousing and OLAPing complex, spatial and spatio-temporal data; 
ETL approaches for warehousing and OLAPing complex, spatial and 
spatio-temporal data; data integration approaches for warehousing and 
OLAPing complex, spatial and spatio-temporal data; data cleaning 
approaches for warehousing and OLAPing complex, spatial and 
spatio-temporal data; storage issues of warehousing and OLAPing complex, 
spatial and spatio-temporal data; privacy-preserving issues of 
warehousing and OLAPing complex, spatial and spatio-temporal data; 
models and techniques for representing complex, spatial and 
spatio-temporal data in warehouse and OLAP environments; models, 
algorithms and techniques for managing complex, spatial and 
spatio-temporal data in warehouse and OLAP environments; models, 
algorithms and techniques for querying complex, spatial and 
spatio-temporal data in warehouse and OLAP environments; models, 
algorithms and techniques for indexing complex, spatial and 
spatio-temporal data in warehouse and OLAP environments; models, 
algorithms and techniques for mining complex, spatial and 
spatio-temporal data in warehouse and OLAP environments.

The Track Warehousing and OLAPing Complex, Spatial and Spatio-Temporal 
Data of the 14th East-European Conference on Advances in Databases and 
Information Systems (ADBIS 2010) 
(http://perun.im.ns.ac.yu/adbis2010/index.php), to be held in Novi Sad, 
Serbia during September 20-24, 2010 focuses on these aspects, by posing 
the emphasis on a theoretical as well as a practical point of view, and 
provides a forum for researchers and practitioners interested in 
Warehousing and OLAPing complex, spatial and spatio-temporal data to 
meet and exchange preliminary ideas and mature results.
