Call for Papers - DaWaK '13
15th International Conference on Data Warehousing and Knowledge Discovery (DaWaK 2013)
Prague, Czech Republic
August 26-29, 2013



Data Warehousing and Knowledge Discovery has been widely accepted as a key technology for enterprises and organizations to improve their abilities in data analysis, decision support, and the automatic extraction of knowledge from data. With the exponentially growing amount of information to be included in the decision making process, the data to be considered becomes more and more complex in both structure and semantics. New developments such as cloud computing and Big Data add to the challenges with massive scaling, a new computing infrastructure, and new types of data. Consequently, the process of retrieval and knowledge discovery from this huge amount of heterogeneous complex data builds the litmus-test for the research in the area.
Submissions presenting current research work on both theoretical and practical aspects of Big Data, Data Warehousing and Knowledge Discovery are encouraged. DaWaK 2013 is organized into 4 tracks as follows:

Big Data and Cloud Intelligence Track:

• Big Data Storage
• Big Data Query Languages and Optimization
• Big Data Analytics and User Interfaces

• Scalability and parallelization for cloud intelligence: map-reduce and beyond
• Analytics for the cloud infrastructure
• Analytics for unstructured, semi-structured, and structured data
• Semantic web intelligence
• Analytics for temporal, spatial, spatio-temporal, and mobile data
• Analytics for data streams and sensor data
• Analytics for multimedia data
• Analytics for social networks
• Real-time/right-time and event-based analytics
• Privacy and security in cloud intelligence
• Reliability and fault tolerance in cloud intelligence

Data Warehousing Track:
