Dear collegues,
I wish to draw your attention on the workshop 'Design and Management of Data Warehouses' which we organize within the CAiSE'01 conference in Interlaken, Switzerland. CAiSE is one of the best and definitely one of the most enjoyable conferences in the IS design area. So, please consider to submit a paper to this workshop if you are working in the data warehouse area!
Greetings, .-- Manfred Jeusfeld
2nd CALL FOR PAPERS
------------------------------------------------------------------- 3rd International Workshop on
DESIGN AND MANAGEMENT OF DATA WAREHOUSES (DMDW'2001)
http://sunsite.informatik.rwth-aachen.de/Societies/DMDW/2001/
June 4, 2001 Interlaken, Switzerland
in conjunction with the 13th Conference on Advanced Information Systems Engineering (CAiSE'01) http://www.caise01.ch/ --------------------------------------------------------------------
Data Warehousing embraces technology and industrial practice to systematically integrate data from multiple distributed data sources and to use that data in annotated and aggregated form to support business decision-making and enterprise management. Although many database techniques have been revisited or newly developed in the context of data warehouses, such as view maintenance and OLAP, little attention has been paid to the design and management of data warehouses to appropriately serve their purposes, i.e., to support the management of a given enterprise. This workshop is intended as a forum to fill this gap. It is the third in a series of successful workshops that started at CAiSE'99 in Heidelberg, Germany, and continued at CAiSE'00 in Stockholm, Sweden. DMDW is a workshop series devoted exclusively to Data Warehousing issues and attracts participants from both the industry and the research community.
We cordially invite researchers to submit original research papers to the 3rd workshop, and experts of the DW application industry to submit experience papers. Some possible focus areas are given below but submissions covering other data warehousing-related topics, not on this list, are welcomed as well.
RESEARCH TOPICS
* Design methods for data warehouses * Data warehouse architectures * Physical organization of data warehouses * Materialized view selection for data warehousing * Data extraction and cleaning for data warehousing * Organization of meta-data management * Data Warehouse quality * Verification of design goals and information needs * On-Line Analytical Processing * Conceptual and logical modeling of multi-dimensional data * Multidimensional query languages * Query processing and optimization in data warehouses * Data warehouse evolution * Data warehouse security * Data warehouses and the web
EXPERIENCE TOPICS
* Motivation for installing a data warehouse * Integration of a data warehouse into an organization's business processes * Supporting federations of data warehouses * Experience with data warehouse software and tools * Detection of useful or even necessary functionalities that are lacking from commercial products * Problems and challenges in data warehouse usage (e.g. data loading, data cleaning, data inconsistency, data maintenance, data quality, performance issues) * User acceptance of data warehouses * Impact of OLAP and data mining on business decisions * Success stories of data warehouse installations
SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS
