Track 6: Databases and Information Systems

 

Track Chair:
Carmem Hara, Universidade Federal do Parana, Brazil

Scope

Big volumes of data have been produced in all areas of expertise, and the ability to properly manage them can determine the success of any initiative. Research works in Databases (DB) and Information Systems (IS) address challenges involved in all stages of the information life-cycle, from physical storage to conceptual models. Additionally, they foster innovative application of techniques and algorithms to solve information and data management problems in the real world. The purpose of this track is to bring together researchers who develop, investigate, or apply database or information systems techniques in the context of real-world applications.

We welcome both research papers and system and application papers. Research papers describe innovative research on all aspects of database and information systems, from theoretical foundations work to novel models and algorithms. System and application papers describe applied work addressing real-world problems and systems. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
