Special Session on
Business Data on the Web (BDW 2010) http://bdw2010.uni-muenster.de during ACIIDS 2010, Hue, Vietnam March 24-26, 2010 Description: Data has been termed the new ?Intel Inside? in connection with recent developments on the Web. Indeed, in particular in connection with what has been called ?Web 2.0? since 2004, data has been produced in abundance, through automatic collection by machines (e.g., logs kept by Web servers, click paths, login and tracking data, search engine indexes) or through voluntary entry by humans (e.g., tags attached to photos, news, or bookmarks, registrations, evaluations, comments, online diaries and blogs, emails, social network profiles). A host of novel functionality relies on the availability of such data, and numerous problems result from it, e.g., data losses, protection of privacy, abuse, etc. Nevertheless there is a clear trend that not only personal and private data, but also business data is kept on the Web at an increasing rate and amount. Indeed, as cloud computing and data centers are more and more penetrating the general computing realm, and as even IT costs have become pressing in financially difficult periods, placing data on the Web may not just be a hobby, but is becoming a professional necessity. As could be observed during recent years, there are considerable differences in handling this situation, in the readiness of enterprises to place business data on the Web, and in their willingness to trust their data to external providers, the reasons for this being manifold: availability problems, legal restrictions, business competition, danger of breaches, transaction safety, ownership issues, to name just a few. It the goal of this special session is to bring together people who are concerned with or interested in these issues, develop solutions, and share their views and findings both from an Asian as well as from a broader perspective. Topics of Interest: The topics covered in this special session include, but are not limited to the following, where an emphasis will always be put on business-related aspects: * Technical aspects of data on the Web * Open data sets * Semi-structured data * Cleansing of large data collections * Data integration * Data fusion * Data privacy * Ownership issues for data * Transactions on Web data * Data availability * Data portability * Legal as well as intellectual property issues related to data on the Web * Customer data on the Web * Data-as-a-service and database-as-a-service (DaaS) * Data centers Paper Submission: Authors are invited to submit original, unpublished research papers that are not being considered for publication in any other forum.
