                                CALL FOR PAPERS

        3rd International Workshop on XML Schema and Data Management (XSDM 2006)
                        http://www.ntu.edu.sg/home/assourav/XSDM/main.html

                                      in conjunction with

          The 22nd IEEE International Conference on Data Engineering (ICDE 2006)
                                April 3-7, Atlanta, GA, 2006



BACKGROUND:


XML has gain lot of attention from database researchers who are actively 
working in one
or more of the emerging XML areas. XML data are self-describing, and 
provide a platform
independent means to describe data and therefore, can transport data from 
one platform
to another. XML documents can be  mapped to one more of the existing data 
models such as
Relational and Object-relational, and XML views can be produced dynamically 
from the
pre-existing data models. XML queries can be mapped to the queries of the 
underlying
models and can use their optimization  features. In this context, schema 
management and
discovery, query optimization, data  integration and indexing plays 
important roles. XML
data integration is useful for  E-commerce applications such as 
comparison-shopping,
which requires further study in  the domain of data, schema and query based 
integration.
XML Change management is another important area that has attracted 
attention in the context of web warehouse. XML has been
in use in upcoming areas such web services, sensor and biological data 
management.

Following the success of the last two International Workshop on XML Schema 
and Data
Management, we are pleased to invite original contributions in this area 
for the 3rd
International Workshop on XML Schema and Data Management to be held in 
Atlanta, USA.
One of the key objective of this workshop is to bring together researchers 
in this area
who can share their views under this workshop. We solicits papers with 
important new
insights and experiences of managing XML data. Topics of interest include, 
but are not
limited to

*XML schema discovery
*XML schema validation and constraints
*XML data integration
*XML data storage and indexing
*XML query languages and optimization
*XML views and data publishing
*XML data semantics
*XML and semantic web
*XML data mining
*XML change management
*XML views and data mappings
*XML data security
*XML data privacy
*XML data compression
*XML in Web services
*XML benchmark and performance studies
*XML in new domains- sensor and biological data management
