International Workshop on Multimedia Data and Document Engineering (MDDE'01)

In conjunction with the 7th International Conference on Reengineering Technologies for Information Systems (http://lisi.insa-lyon.fr/~retis)

July 4, 2001 , Lyon, France

WORKSHOP OBJECTIVES Most of the multimedia information disseminated today is in the form of heterogeneous data or weakly structured documents. This raises many issues when one wants to exploit this information especially when co-operative actions are needed between various sources of data/documents. This international Workshop on Multimedia Data and Document Engineering is aimed to bring together researchers in all aspects of multimedia and document engineering. We also welcome Ph.D. students and young researchers that have delivered their dissertation (degree, master or Ph.D).

Research and experience papers are solicited in, but not limited to, the following topics:

Models and languages for documents and semi-structured data - Conceptual structures for documents - Semantics modeling - Query languages for Web databases - Content description definition languages Data/Document Engineering - Meta-data Management - Interoperability issues - Techniques for integrating heterogeneous data/documents - Semantic retrieval - Multimedia indexing and retrieval - Query processing and optimization - Document database system - Mining from XML documents Applications in - Digital Libraries - E-commerce - Documents and mobile networks - Co-operative systems - Data Warehouses

INSTRUCTIONS FOR AUTHORS: Authors are invited to submit extended abstracts (around 6 pages long) by May 2, 2001. Selection will be based on originality and contribution to the field. Manuscripts must be in English, typed in single spaced format in no smaller than 10 point font. Each extended abstract should have an extra cover page with name, title, and address (including e-mail address) of the contact author and an abstract of no more than 200 words. Papers in postscript or PDF format should be sent to : mdde@lisi.insa-lyon.fr

IMPORTANT DATES May 2, 2001: Paper submission deadline May 28, 2001: Notification of results June 15, 2001: Final version of papers due
