        SYMPOSIUM ON PRINCIPLES OF DATABASE SYSTEMS

                Chicago, 26--28 June 2006

                http://www.umich.edu/sigmod-pods06

The PODS symposium series, held in conjunction with the SIGMOD
conference series, provides a premier annual forum for the communication
of new advances in the theoretical foundation of database systems.
For the 25th edition, original research papers providing new insights
in the specification, design, or implementation of data management
tools are called for.  Topics that fit the interests of the symposium
include the following (as they pertain to databases):

algorithms; complexity; computational model theory; concurrency;
constraints; data integration; data mining; data modeling; data on
the Web; data streams; data warehouses; distributed databases;
information retrieval; knowledge bases; logic; multimedia; physical
design; privacy; quantitative approaches; query languages; query
optimization; real-time data; recovery; scientific data; security;
semantic Web; semi-structured data; spatial data; temporal data;
transactions; updates; views; Web services; workflows; XML.

Papers should be at most ten pages, using reasonable page layout
and font size.  Additional details may be included in an appendix,
which, however, will be read at the discretion of the program
committee.  Submissions are made through the Web:

BEST PAPER AWARD:

An award will be given to the best submission, as judged by the
program committee.

BEST NEWCOMER AWARD:

There will also be an award for the best submission, as judged by
the program committee, written solely by authors who have never

The program committee reserves the right to give both awards to the
same paper, not to give an award, or to split an award among several
papers.  Papers authored or co-authored by PC members are not
eligible for an award.
