The Hellenic Data Management Symposium (HDMS) is the annual forum for the Greek database community

to present and discuss recent advances in the data management field. After a successful series of

ten events held since 2002, the 10th symposium will be held in Chania, Crete, from Thursday June 28th to

Friday,

June 29th, 2012, right after the SSDBM conference also held in Chania.

The program of HDMS 2011 will include research paper presentations, tutorials, demos, panels, and

invited talks.

The key criterion in judging submissions is that of technical content. As such, papers recently accepted

for

presentation in top international conferences or journals may be also submitted to HDMS and considered

for inclusion in the unofficial HDMS proceedings.

TOPICS OF INTEREST

Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):

* Core database technologies (e.g. query processing and optimization, database concurrency control,

etc).

* Non-traditional data management architectures (e.g. data stream management, computational

clouds,

peer-to-peer systems, replica management, etc).

* Data management applications, (e.g. Web mashups, social networks, geographical information systems,

location-based services, scientific databases, sensor networks, crowd-sourcing etc).

* Models and languages for the management of data (e.g. XML, RDF, probabilistic databases,

meta-data management, multi-media, etc).

* Techniques for high performance and scalability in the management of data (e.g.

indexing, hardware accelerators, new hardware technologies, etc).

* Other aspects of modern information systems (e.g., security, privacy, user interfaces, energy use

minimization etc).

The primary criterion for selecting submitted papers will be technical depth, with novelty being a

second criterion.

IMPORTANT DATES

* Papers, demos, tutorials and panels submissions due: 11 April 2012

* Notification of acceptance: 20 May 2012

* Camera-ready due: 30 May 2012

* Symposium dates: 28-29 June 2012

SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS

Research papers must be submitted electronically in PDF. The submission site is located at

https://cmt.research.microsoft.com/HDMS2012. Novel papers should be formatted according to the

official

ACM Proceedings format (available at: http://www.acm.org/sigs/pubs/proceed/template.html) and

should

not exceed twelve (12) pages. Papers already accepted for presentation in top international conferences

can be submitted to HDMS in their original format.

To help the Greek community form a consistent corpus of relevant terminology, all accepted papers must

be accompanied by (i) title, and (ii) abstract in GREEK. This information is not required for

submission; authors of accepted papers will be required to upload this information together with their

camera-ready paper.

Proposals for tutorials, panels and research prototype demonstrations should either be in their

original

format (if already accepted in major database conferences), or they should not exceed two (2) pages,

including the speakers, panelists, and the general concept of the proposal. Due to the short symposium

duration, we don?t expect more than one tutorial and one panel to be accepted for inclusion in the program.
