THE 2nd WORKSHOP ON THE RESURGENCE OF DATALOG IN ACADEMY AND INDUSTRY
September 11-14, 2012, Vienna, Austria
http://www.dbai.tuwien.ac.at/datalog2.0
FIRST CALL FOR PAPERS and INDUSTRY CASE DESCRIPTIONS
The "2nd Workshop on the Resurgence of Datalog in Academy and Industry" (Datalog 2.0, 2012) will be held in Vienna, Austria, on September 11-14, 2012, and co-located with the "International Conference on Web Reasoning and Rule Systems" (RR 2012) and the "International Conference on Computational Models of Argument" (COMMA 2012). This will be the first open version of the workshop, second in total. The previous edition was held in Oxford, UK, during March 2010. It was based on invitations only.
Datalog 2.0 is a workshop for Datalog researchers, implementors, and users. Its main aim is to bring everyone up-to-date and map out directions for future research. Over the past few years, Datalog has resurrected as a lively topic with applications in many different areas of computer science, as well as industry. Due to this renewed interest and increased level of activity in the area, we have decided to open the workshop for submissions this year.
We have chosen an attractive location: Vienna is certainly a metropolis with unique charm and one of the most beautiful cities in Europe. But more importantly, we want to offer an exciting scientific atmosphere, and receive high level research contributions.
We solicit original submissions on the foundational aspects of Datalog, as well as on its applications in other areas of computer science and in industry. Potential areas of application for Datalog may include (among others): Data management, data mining, description logics, cloud computing, distributed computing, knowledge representation, logic programming, privacy and security, probabilistic reasoning, program analysis, programming languages, semantic web, social networks, streaming, verification, web services.
Paper submissions must be in electronic form using Portable Document Format (.pdf). Papers should be formatted according to the standard latex format, using 11-point or larger fonts, in a single-column, and single-space (between lines) format. The length should not exceed 12 pages. Papers longer than 12 pages risk rejection without consideration of their merits. In addition, the authors may include an unbounded-length appendix (e.g. for proof details), with the understanding that the appendix is read at the reviewers' discretion.
The workshop will have formal proceedings, but the publisher is in the process of being decided.
We also intend to have a track that discusses the influence of Datalog in industry and practice. The scope is broad and may range from business case descriptions to applications of Datalog in R&D. Groups or individuals that feel interested in presenting their experiences in this track, please send an e-mail to the chairs of the workshop with a summary of their proposal. In case of acceptance, the authors will be invited to provide a 5 page extended abstract to be included in the workshop proceedings.
