INVITED TALK I : Emergent Semantics
Stefano Spaccapietra, EPFL, Switzerland
Co-author: IFIP 2.6 Working Group "Databases"
Information and communication infrastructures underwent a rapid and extreme
decentralization process over the past decade: From a world of statically
and partially connected central servers rose an intricate web of millions of
information sources loosely connecting one to another. The dynamism and
relative autonomy of the individuals in the structure is now seen as a chance
more than a threat to the stability and consistency of the overall system.
New paradigms, like ad-hoc or peer-to-peer networks, even exacerbate this
position by taking advantage of the liveliness and heterogeneity of their
constituents in the creation of global, self-organizing structures. Today,
we expect to witness the extension of this revolution with the wide adoption
of meta-data standards like RDF or OWL underpinning the creation of a semantic
web. Again, we hope for global properties to emerge from a multiplicity of
pair-wise, local interactions, resulting eventually in a self-stabilizing
semantic infrastructure. This paper represents an effort to summarize the
conditions under which this revolution would take place as well as an attempt
to underline its main properties, consequences and applications. Also, it
proposes solutions to the main threads and limitations endangering the formation
and proper functioning of such a large-scale, emergent semantic system.

TUTORIAL I : Query Processing in XML Databases
Hongjun Lu, Hong Kong University of Science & Technology
Jeffrey Xu Yu, Chinese University of Hong Kong
XML has become a de facto standard for information dissemination and exchange
over the Internet. During the past few years, a large amount of work has been
devoted to XML data management and dozens of XML data management systems have
been developed. Recently more work on query processing and optimization in XML
database systems has been reported. The objective of this tutorial is to review
the issues in XML query processing and optimization and summarize the
state-of-the-art techniques. We will first briefly discuss the special features
of the XML data and XML query languages from the view point of query processing
followed by an introduction on different approaches of physical data organization
and indexing techniques. Query processing techniques in both relational based
systems and native XML engines will be discussed in detail. Finally we will
discuss the issues related to XML query optimization.

KEYNOTE II : Data Semantics Revisited: Databases and the Semantic Web
John Mylopoulos, University of Toronto, Canada
Data in a data source are useful because they model some part of the real world,
its subject matter (or application, or domain of discourse). The problem of
data semantics is establishing and maintaining the correspondence between a
data source, hereafter a model, and its intended subject matter. The model may
be a database storing data about employees in a company, a database schema
describing parts, projects and suppliers, a website presenting information
about a university, or a plain text file describing the battle of Waterloo.
The problem has been with us since the development of the first databases.
However, the problem remained under control as long as the operational
environment of a database remained closed and relatively stable. In such a
setting, the meaning of the data was factored out from the database proper,
and entrusted to the small group of regular users and/or application programs.
The advent of the web has changed all that. Databases today are made available,
in some form, on the web where users, application programs and uses are open-ended
and ever changing. In such a setting, the semantics of the data has to be made
available along with the data. For human users, this is done through an appropriate
choice of presentation format. For application programs, however, this semantics
has to be provided in a formal and (hence) processable form. Hence the call for
the Semantic Web.
We critically review some of the concepts and technologies under development,
intended to meet the Semantic Web challenge. We then propose a formal framework
for assigning meaning to data through composite mappings from a model to its
intended subject matter. Our proposal adopts a formal semantics framework
proposed in [Smith87], and postulates that every model must come with a meaning
defined in terms of a mapping to another model. This recursive definition of
semantics terminates with a mapping to a formal model of a class of applications.
To illustrate the scope and potential benefits of our proposal, we focus on
database schemas (both conceptual and logical) and present an example involving
several schemas and the mappings among them.
This is a speculative talk. The research that will flesh out the details and
actual benefits of this framework are ahead of us. The seminar is based on
joint work with Alex Borgida and Yuan An.

TUTORIAL II : Algorithmic Excursions in Data Streams
Sudipto Guha, University of Pennsylvannia
For many recent applications, the concept of a data stream is more
appropriate than a data set. By nature, a stored data set is an
appropriate model when significant portions of the data are queried
again and again, and updates are small and/or relatively
infrequent. In contrast, a data stream is an appropriate model when a
large volume of data is arriving continuously and it is either
unnecessary or impractical to store the data in some form of
memory. Many applications naturally generate data streams as opposed
to simple data sets. Astronomers, telecommunications companies, banks,
stock-market analysts, and news organizations, for example, have vast
amounts of data arriving continuously. Data Mining of streams is thus
a necessary ingredient for many successful applications. The stream
view challenges basic assumptions in data mining like random access to
data. It also raises several fundamental questions like are there
effective techniques for mining streams?
In this tutorial we will present a survey of algorithms and
applications related to data streams. We begin by presenting the basic
data stream model of computation. We will then cover techiques for
preprocessing a stream like sampling from a stream, dimension
reduction of a stream, and summarizing a stream using structures like
histograms. These preprocessing steps are commonly employed prior to
data mining. We will then cover various techniques for mining streams
like computing frequent itemsets, clusters, and decision trees. Since
query processing is a basic tool that is needed to support data mining
in databases. We assume that the audience has elementary knowledge of
algorithms and a basic understanding of data mining. By and large, the
tutorial will be self-contained.

TUTORIAL III : Design and Implementation of an E-Catalog Management System
Sang-goo Lee, Seoul National University
Electronic catalogs providing information on products and services form
one of the most important components of e-business systems. To support
various business solutions such as e-procurement, supply chain management,
and enterprise resource planning, a Catalog Management System (CMS) needs
to provide flexible data schema and a holistic control for management
activities including definition, creation, storage, retrieval, revision,
reuse, and maintenance of data and meta-data of products and services.
The design of a CMS is complicated by the diversity in product types,
applications, and vocabulary. Relational schema design for tens of
thousands of different product types is an issue that has been well
noted and addressed in the literature. Identifying products and product
classes across organizations throughout the product lifecycle, often known
as data synchronization, has been one of the toughest challenges in the
supply chain management world.
In this tutorial, we will define the problems and challenges of e-catalog
management. We will then introduce our experience and present solutions to
some of these problems including product database design, classification
scheme management, and product search. We will also introduce an
ontology-based approach to these problems and its applications. Demos of a
Catalog Management System are available.
