constantly created. We are witnessing a tremendous growth in the
number, types, and novelty of information integration systems, as well
as an increased level of sophistication.
IIWAS'99 is a forum of discussion and presentation of new ideas and
technologies for value adding services in information integration and
web-based applications and services. The goal of the workshop is to
bring together practitioners, researchers, users and information
providers involved in the development and deployment of commercial,
industrial and practical applications to exchange ideas, present their
recent research and discuss possible collaborations.
Papers reporting on commercial or experimental applications as well as
demonstrations are strongly encouraged.
The main topics for papers and demonstrations include, but are not
limited to:
* Federated databases and multi-databases
* Modeling the contents of information systems
* Tools for supporting information integration
* Flexible approaches to selecting relevant sources
* Mediated access to heterogeneous information sources
* Mediation systems architecture
* Approaches for efficient and flexible query planning and optimization
* Classification schemes (for mediators, semantic heterogeneity, etc.)
* Semantic, schematic, vocabulary, data heterogeneity
* Practical experience with integration approaches
* Reviews and evaluation of existing integration approaches
* Logic programming for information integration and web applications
* Internet tools for information and knowledge sharing
* Advanced information search and filtering
