CFP: 3rd International Conference on Objects and Databases (ICOODB)

3rd International Conference on Objects and Databases (ICOODB) September 28-30, 2010 Goethe University Frankfurt Frankfurt am Main, Germany http://www.icoodb2010.org/ Call for Research Papers We invite submissions of papers detailing original research contributions on any topic related to persistent object life cycle management, persistent object data management, objects and databases, and object oriented persistence technologies. These topics may address issues related to data models and database design, software engineering and application frameworks, database architectures and systems, database languages and theoretical foundations, novel applications. Selected papers will be presented at the conference and the papers published in the conference proceedings (publication details to be provided later). Topics of Interest We recognize that the world of data management is changing. The linkage to service platforms, operation within scalable (cloud) platforms, object-relational bindings, NoSQL databases, and new approaches to concurrency control are all becoming hot topics both in academia and industry. We therefore also encourage papers in any of these areas. General topics of interest include, but are not restricted to: OBJECT DATABASE MODELING AND DESIGN object data models design of object databases semantics of object databases OBJECT DATABASE FRAMEWORKS AND SOFTWARE ENGINEERING application development and application frameworks software engineering issues constraint models and mechanisms event models and mechanisms object-oriented frameworks for data management ontologies and object stores OBJECT DATABASES object storage systems object query languages transaction management for object databases access structures and indexing in object databases distributed object databases architecture and engineering of object database engines evaluation of object databases benchmarks novel applications of object databases object databases in education INTEGRATION OF OBJECT-ORIENTED PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES WITH DATABASES Integrating objects and databases Novel design of Programming Languages for objects and database OBJECT/RELATIONAL MAPPINGS Novel design and/or Implementation of O/R Systems. Benchmarks CLOUD DATA STORES Novel design and/or Implementation of Cloud Data Stores Novel Application of Cloud Data Stores Benchmarks DOCUMENT STORES Novel design and/or Implementation of Document Stores Novel Application of Document Stores NOSQL DATABASES Novel design and/or Implementation of NoSQL Databases Novel Application of NoSQL Databases Benchmarks Submission of Papers: The deadline for submissions is 30 May 2010. Research papers should be submitted through the online submission system. Papers should be formatted according to the LNCS guidelines and must not be longer than 15 pages.
