application users to explore revolutionary ideas and results, and to
exchange techniques, tools, and experiences.
We invite the submission of original research contributions relating to all
aspects of database engineering defined broadly, and particularly encourage
submissions on topics of emerging interest describing work on integrating
new technologies into products and applications, on experiences with existing
and novel techniques, and on the identification of unsolved challenges.
