Workshop Objectives and Scope

The unprecedented growth of electronic data and ever-increasing user 
dependence on electronic data in today's world suggests that data should be 
regarded as one of the most important assets of the users. On the other 
hand, the last decade has witnessed tremendous increase in globalization. 
This has created a strong need for global-scale data repository systems, 
which store different kinds of user data of varying sensitivities and allow 
their users transparent access to data. Such data repositories can be 
significantly beneficial to users in several ways. For example, they can 
facilitate users in accessing any data in real-time from anywhere at 
anytime. Moreover, they can serve as data warehouses and provide archival 
data storage services to their users. Additionally, given the tremendously 
large amounts of data that can be expected to be in such repositories, data 
mining can also be done on these repositories to identify and analyze 
trends. Due to their tremendous usefulness, these global-scale data 
repositories have opened many new and interesting avenues for research in 
academia as well as in industry. The objective of this workshop is to bring 
together researchers from academia and industry to discuss novel and 
interesting solutions to the problems currently faced by global-scale data 
repositories.


In the context of the general theme of the workshop concerning global-scale 
data management, suggested topics for this workshop include (but are NOT 
limited to) the following:

P2P environments
GRIDs
Data Storage and Management
Data Indexing
Data Integration
Data Semantics
Data Replication
Dynamic Data Placement Issues
Load-balancing
Query Processing and Query Optimization
Resource Allocation and Scheduling
Heterogeneity in the environment
Performance Evaluation
Security, Trust and Privacy Mechanisms
Global-Scale Distributed Applications and Experiences
Data Mining
Data Warehousing

Submission deadline (extended): April 30, 2005
Notification of acceptance: May 10, 2005
Camera-ready copies due: May 20, 2005
