Call for Papers/Participation/Poster Papers

The annual IDEAS conference has emerged as an important international forum
for data engineering researchers, practitioners, developers, and
application users to explore revolutionary ideas and results, and to
exchange techniques, tools, and experiences.

We invite the submission of original research contributions relating to all
aspects of database engineering defined broadly, and particularly encourage
submissions on topics of emerging interest describing work on integrating
new technologies into products and applications, on experiences with
existing and novel techniques, and on the identification of unsolved
challenges.

Track (Targeted Session) Proposals

As in the past, IDEAS 2015 will include tracks (Targeted Session) on
current topics of interest to the community. If you and your colleagues
would like to include such a track, please contact us ASAP (before Feb 15,
2015). Please include the topics, the track chair and the proposed addition
to the program committee to handle the submissions for the track. The
submission would be via the IDEAS 2015 pages on ConfSys.


This year, we have organized the following special tracks along with the main event(General pool). For details of a track, please consult the IDEAS 2015 web page on ConfSys.
