CIKM 2015 - 24th ACM International Conference on Information and Knowledge Management

Since 1992, it has successfully brought together leading researchers and developers from the three communities. The purpose of the conference is to identify challenging problems facing the development of future knowledge and information systems, and to shape future research directions through the publication of high quality, applied and theoretical research findings. In CIKM 2015, we will continue the tradition of promoting collaboration among multiple areas. We encourage submissions of high quality papers on all topics in the general areas of databases, information retrieval, and knowledge management. Topics of interest in the three tracks include, but are not limited to:
Databases
Access methods and indexing
Authorization, data privacy and security
Concurrency control and recovery
Data adaptability, reusability and quality
Database languages, models and interfaces
Information integration, data provenance, probabilistic databases
Cloud computing, peer-to-peer, parallel and distributed databases
Query processing, optimization and performance
Semi-structured data processing, XML filtering and routing
Stream-based processing, real-time and network databases
String databases, blogs and social search
Systems, middleware, applications and experiences
Temporal, spatial, mobile, multimedia and scientific databases
