Information systems and database systems have always been a central topic of computer science. Additionally the integration of knowledge, information and data justifies its today’s attractiveness. Since 1990 DEXA is an annual international conference, located in Europe, which showcases state-of-the-art research activities in these areas.

DEXA 2009, the 20th conference in the series, will be held in Linz, Austria, during August 2009. It will continue to provide a forum for presenting research results in the area of database and intelligent systems and discussions on advanced applications and issues related to these areas. It will offer the opportunity to extensively discuss requirements, problems, and solutions in the field. The workshop and conference should inspire a fruitful dialogue between developers in practice, users of database and expert systems, and scientists working in the field.

IMPORTANT DATES:

* Submission of abstracts: March 1, 2009
* Submission of full papers: March 8, 2009
* Notification of acceptance: May 22, 2009
* Camera-ready copies due: June 10, 2009


PAPER SUBMISSIONS DETAILS:

Authors are invited to electronically submit original research contributions or experience reports in English.
• The submitted manuscript should closely reflect the final paper as it will appear in the Proceedings.
• Papers should not exceed 15 pages in LNCS format (http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html)
• Any submission that exceeds length limits or deviates from formatting requirements may be rejected without review.
For paper registration and electronic submission see http://www.dexa.org starting in January 2009.

Submitted papers will be carefully evaluated based on originality, significance, technical soundness, and clarity of exposition.

Duplicate submissions are not allowed. A submission is considered to be a duplicate submission if, at any time during the time when the submission is under consideration, there is another paper with the following properties:
(1) the paper and the DEXA, DaWaK, EC-Web, TrustBus, GLOBE, HoloMAS submission have at least one author in common; (2) the paper is more than 6 pages long, when formatted in the DEXA format; (3) the main technical content of the paper substantially overlaps that of the DEXA, DaWaK, EC-Web, TrustBus, GLOBE, HoloMAS submission; and (4) the paper is published or under consideration for publication in a refereed journal or proceedings (electronic or printed) .

Authors are expected to agree to the following terms: "I understand that the paper being submitted must not overlap substantially with any other paper that I am a co-author of and that is currently submitted elsewhere. Furthermore, previously published papers with any overlap are cited prominently in this submission."
Duplicate submissions will be rejected. Questions about this policy or how it applies to your work should be directed to the PC-chairs.

ACCEPTED PAPERS:

All accepted conference papers will be published in "Lecture Notes in Computer Science" (LNCS) by Springer Verlag. Accepted papers will be of two sizes: regular (15-page papers) and short (up to 8 pages). The former will tend to be descriptions of complete technical work, while the latter will tend to be descriptions of interesting, innovative ideas, which nevertheless require more work to mature. Authors of accepted papers must sign a Springer copyright release form.
