The CISMOD series of conference aim to provide an
international forum to exchange ideas and experiences on the
research, development and applications of data management
methodologies, tools, techniques and systems. Covering a wide
range of issues and topics, these conferences place special
emphasis on original work connected with evolving techniques in
databases and their applications. State-of-art reviews and new
perspectives are also encouraged. The CISMOD conferences are
therefore targeted to serve researchers, developers, managers,
users and others interested in the state-of-art activities in
Information Systems and Data Management. CISMOD'93 continues this
tradition.
This call for papers is an invitation to you to share
your ideas, work and experiences with others of the community by
submitting a paper as well as attending the conference and
participating in tutorials, panel discussions and technical
sessions.
