*** Sixth Call for Papers ***
21st European Conference on Advances in Databases and Information Systems
ADBIS 2017
Hilton Cyprus, Nicosia, Cyprus
24 - 27 September, 2017

*** Submission Deadline: 17 April 2017 (extended) ***
The main objective of the ADBIS series of conferences is to provide a forum for the dissemination of research accomplishments and to promote interaction and collaboration between the database and information system research communities from European countries and the rest of the world. The ADBIS conferences provide an international platform for the presentation of research on database theory, development of advanced DBMS technologies, and their advanced applications.
The conference will consist of regular sessions with technical contributions (regular papers, short papers) reviewed and selected by an international program committee, as well as of invited talks and tutorials presented by leading scientists. The official language of the conference will be English. A Doctoral Consortium and different Workshops will be held in line with the main conference.
TOPICS
We invite original papers describing results that broadly belong to both theory and practice of databases and information systems. The list of specific topics of interest follows, with a note that it is not exhaustive and we welcome novel results addressing topics not included in the list.
· Data intensive sciences and databases · Theoretical foundations of databases · Management of large scale data systems · Data models and query languages · Database monitoring and (self-)tuning · Data curation, annotation, and provenance · Data warehousing, OLAP, and ETL tools · Indexing, query processing and optimization · Data mining and knowledge discovery · Big data storage, replication, and consistency · Modeling, mining and querying user generated content · Data quality and data cleansing · Web, XML and semi-structured databases · Sensor databases and mobile data management · Text databases and information retrieval · Probabilistic databases, uncertainty and approximate querying · Temporal and spatial databases · Graph databases · Databases on emerging hardware architectures · Distributed data platforms, including Cloud data systems, key-value stores, and Big Data systems · Information extraction and integration · Streaming data analysis · Scalable data analysis and analytics · Data and information visualization; and user interfaces · Information quality and usability · Information system architectures and networking · Business process modeling and optimization · Data and information flow engineering and management · Context-aware and adaptive information systems · Data and information intensive services · Requirements engineering for databases and information systems · Artificial intelligence in databases and information systems · Data, information, and information systems security · Innovative platforms for data and information handling · Innovative approaches for database and information systems engineering · Novel database and information systems applications
PAPER PUBLISHING
ADBIS accepted research papers will be published in a Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science volume. Papers must not exceed 14 pages in the LNCS format. For camera-ready papers use Latex or Word style (find here http://www.cs.ucy.ac.cy/~george/lm/lm.php?tk=Y29tcHV0YXRpb25hbC5zY2llbmNlCQk.... The program committee may decide to accept a submission as a short paper if it reports interesting results but does not justify publication of a full paper. ADBIS short research papers must not exceed 8 pages. The best paper with students as first authors will receive an award. Best papers of the main conference will be invited for submission in special issues of the ISI-indexed journals Information Systems (http://www.journals.elsevier.com/information-systems/) and Informatica (http://www.informatica.si/).
