TO be held in conjunction with CITSA 2004

The 10th International Conference on Information Systems Analysis and Synthesis: ISAS 2004

The fast dynamics of the information available today has created large scale information repository with non-traditional data feeding methods. The database technology available today is not sufficient to address the access pattern of end users. The grist for many innovative kinds of disciplines is datasets that requires disciplinary integration. The revolutionary and innovative high-payoff research can lead to convert the semi-structured information deposits into well structured databases so as to create new information systems. The efficient information retrieval from multiple repositories is determined by the creation of well structured databases. The database research is an endless effort.

The forthcoming workshop would address many database issues.

Papers are solicited on the following but not restricted.

Data feeding patterns
Semi and unstuructured datasets
Interdisciplinary datasets
Grid ready databases
Automatic storage management
Database security
Real application clusters
Data Recoverability issues
Portal Management
Web support databases
Web-based Information Systems
Multimedia information management
Information clustering 
Database for Digital Libraries 
Information Retrieval vs Databases
Distributed databases and distributed information retrieval
Scientific Datasets and Databases
XML Impact on Databases
Text integration into databases
