C A L L F O R P A P E R S 3rd International Conference on Data Warehousing and Knowledge Discovery DaWaK 01 September 5-7, 2001 Munich, Germany http://www.dexa.org Outline Data Warehousing and Knowledge Discovery technology is emerging as a key technology for enterprises that wish to improve their data analysis, decision support activities, and the automatic extraction of knowledge from data. The objective of the Third International Conference on Data Warehousing and Knowledge Discovery (DaWaK 01) is to bring together researchers and practitioners to discuss research issues and experience in developing and deploying data warehousing and knowledge discovery systems, applications and solutions. The conference is organized by the DEXA Association in parallel with DEXA 01 (12th International Conference on Database and Expert Systems Applications) and EC-Web 01 (2nd International Conference on Electronic Commerce and Web Technologies). It is co-located with the 5th European Conference on Principles and Practice of Knowledge Discovery in Databases, which will take place in Freiburg, September 3-5. The major topics of interest include but are not limited to: Data Warehousing: Active data warehousing Analytical front-end tools Benchmarks Data cleaning Data warehouse architecture Data warehouse security and reliability Decision support systems Design and maintenance of metadata repository Distributed data warehousing Development of data warehouse applications Fragmentation of multidimensional databases Knowledge warehousing Materialized view maintenance/adaptation Multidimensional query languages Query optimization Parallel processing ROLAP/MOLAP systems Spatial data warehouses Transaction processing in data warehouses Virtual data warehousing Warehouse data maintenance Warehouse data models Warehouse implementation Knowledge Discovery: Association rules and temporal association rules Data and knowledge representation Data mining/knowledge discovery agents Data mining/knowledge discovery algorithms Data mining/knowledge discovery applications Data mining/knowledge discovery management systems Data mining/knowledge discovery tools Data mining support for the design of a data warehouse Discovery techniques for data cleaning Distributed and parallel data mining/knowledge discovery Evaluating, consolidating, and explaining discovered knowledge Incremental knowledge discovery Integration of data warehousing and OLAP and data mining Interactive data exploration and discovery Languages and interfaces for data mining Mining in advanced databases Mining genomic data Mining high-dimensional data Modeling of structured, textual, and multimedia data Resource and knowledge discovery on the Internet and WWW Role of domain knowledge and reuse of discovered knowledge Security and privacy issues Uncertainty management Visualization of data and knowledge Paper Submission Details Authors are invited to submit research and application papers, not exceeding 5000 words, representing original, previously unpublished work.
