  • CALL FOR PAPERS ===============================
    1994 INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON APPLICATIONS OF DATABASES (ADB-94)           June 21-23, 1994, Vadstena Monastery Hotel, Sweden

Successful database research and development has made many general database systems available. The industrial offerings range from traditional large mainframe systems, through workstation & PC servers, to mass-produced $100 personal systems. Users, application designers, and the software industry strive to get the most from this technology. Database researchers, and developers try hard to further satisfy application needs. The conference aims at developing synergy between these communities. It is intended as the forum to explore innovative applications of databases, and innovative database services for specific applications.

CONFERENCE LOCATION:


The town of Vadstena is located about 300 km. south of Stockholm, bordering lake Vattern, the 2nd largest lake in Sweden. Vadstena is a medieval town with cobbled streets, an ancient abbey and castle. It is near the town of Linkoping, center for high-tech industry, and home of one of the largest universities in Sweden. The conference site is the monastery originally built as a royal palace in 1258, pre-dating Stockholm. It is the oldest secular building in Sweden. The conference week includes the longest day of the year, when there is light all night in Vadstena and midnight sun in northern Sweden. June 24 is also the national 'Midsummer' holiday in Sweden, when many ethnic celebrations take place. June/July is about the best time for vacations in Scandinavia.

SUBMISSION:


We solicit research, industrial and user's papers, panel proposals, and tutorial proposals. Papers should be original, not exceeding 6.000 words (25 double spaced pages), and with abstract. Accepted papers will be published by Springer Verlag as Lecture Notes in Computer Science. Six copies of the submission, including e-address or fax number, should be sent by February 14, 1994 to:
