CALL FOR PAPERS

9th International Baltic Conference on Databases and Information Systems (Baltic DB&IS 2010) July 5-7, 2010 Riga, Latvia

Detailed information about the conference is available at: http://www.lumii.lv/dbis2010 __________________________________________________

Objective The Baltic conference on databases and information systems is thought as an international forum for technical discussion among researchers and developers of databases and information systems. The objective of the conference is to bring together researchers as well as practitioners and PhD students in the fields of advanced database and information systems research. The goal of the conference is to discuss the role that database systems play in the development of modern networked information systems. The conference is also seeking for the databases and information systems research that relate to ontologies and semantic web. This conference is continuing a series of successful bi-annual Baltic conferences on databases and information systems which have been held in Trakai (1994), Tallinn (1996, 2002, 2008), Riga (1998, 2004), and Vilnius (2000, 2006). Structure and Topics of Interest The conference language is English (talks as well as publications). The conference is planned to include two main tracks: traditional research track and advanced application track. To activate and motivate PhD students the conference programme will include Doctoral Consortium chaired by invited professors. Research Topics Major research topics for the conference will include, but are not limited to: Data and Knowledge Management Data Integration Methods Data Mining Database Technology and Semantic Web Distributed Databases Model based Data Storages Information Systems and Security Information Systems Integration Linguistic Components of Information Systems Ontologies and Concept-Based Search Ontology Design and Learning Ontology-Based Information Systems Querying OWL Requirements Engineering for Information Systems Semantic Annotation and Semantic Interoperability Service Oriented Architectures Tools, Techniques and Languages for Model Driven Development Domain Specific Languages an Tools

Application Topics

Application topics of interest include but are not limited to: Application of Domain Specific Languages for Information Systems Business Information Systems Component-Based Systems Development Database Development Tools E-government and E-commerce Geographic Information Systems Information Systems and AI Technologies Integrated and Interoperable Database Technologies National Information Infrastructure Development Ontology-enabled Information Retrieval RDF Databases Semantic Technologies for Information Systems Service Oriented Information Systems Software Process Improvement Software and Systems Quality Web Information Systems

Doctoral Consortium PhD students are invited to submit extended abstracts describing their current work. Topics will be in line with the main conference topics. Paper Submission Original research papers and application experience papers up to 12 pages should be submitted in electronic form (Standard Postscript, PDF, RTF) to electronic paper submission system set up to the conference web site by the submission deadline (see below). The conference proceedings will be published in the Acta Universitatis Latviensis. Post-conference proceedings of selected papers will be published by IOS Press in the series "Frontiers in Artificial Intelligence and Applications".
