CALL FOR PAPERS

International Workshop on Graph Data Analysis and Management (GDAM 2015)
(http://www.cs.gsu.edu/GDAM15/)
co-located with IEEE/WIC/ACM Web Intelligence Conference 2015
(http://wi-iat15.ntulily.org/wi/)
Singapore, December 6, 2015

The International Workshop on Graph Data Analysis and Management (GDAM 2015) provides a forum for the exchange of ideas and results among researchers, developers, and practitioners working on all aspects of graph data management, mining, and applications. Improvements in data generation and exchange over the Web have caused a tremendous explosion in the amount of graph-like data and has necessitated the need for sophisticated storage, analysis and mining techniques. This workshop aims to provide an avenue for presentation of novel and efficient algorithms and storage structures for managing and mining big graph data. Topics of interest include but not limited to:

Graph Data Management:

Graph representation, storage, indexing and querying methods
Distributed storage techniques
Graph query languages, visualization techniques and querying interfaces
Benchmarking RDF and/or graph database systems
Managing graph updates, evolving and heterogeneous graphs
Graph integration techniques with non-graph systems
Graph data modeling

Graph Data Mining:

Graph summarization and sampling
Graph clustering, partitioning and classification methods
Frequent subgraph mining, graph pattern matching
Algorithms for big graph data
Parallel graph processing techniques/architectures
Knowledge discovery from graphs
Measuring graph characteristics – diameter, eigenvalues, triangle counting
Approximation techniques
Graph search algorithms

Graph Applications:

- Social networks
- Biological network data
- Web analysis and mining
- Business data analysis
- Healthcare data
- Cybersecurity
