Goa to host COMAD 2005

The 11th International Con-ference on Management of Data (COMAD 2005) will be
held in Goa from Jan 6—8, 2005. COMAD 2005 will focus on new developments in
the principles and practices related to data management. The conference will
bring together researchers, pra-ctitioners, developers and users to present and
discuss emerging trends, concepts, techniques, technologies and experiences in
data management.

For over a decade, the COMAD International Con-ference on Management of Data,
modeled along the lines of ACM SIGMOD, has been the premier database conference
hosted in India. It was held on a close-to-annual basis until Dec 2000, after
which various national and international database events, including ICDE in
March 2003, have been hosted in India. The org-anization of COMAD 2005 is an
attempt to revive the COMAD series.

Number of original res-earch papers on the theory, specification, design, and
implementation of data and information management systems will be presented in
the three-day conference. Various case studies and experiences in the design and
implementation of such systems and industrial pap-ers, as well as proposals for
tutorials and panels will be the part of the agenda.
