The theme of this year's conference will be the expanding role of database systems, with a special emphasis on new applications and the interaction with other computing dis- ciplines. Thus, along with papers dealing with well- established areas of database technology, we encourage the submission of original contributions on the following topics: o Databases and Logic o Real Time and Non-Stop Database Systems o Object-Oriented Architectures o Engineering and CAD/CAM databases o Multimedia Databases o User Interfaces and Graphics o Performance Issues and Optimization o Cartographic and Pictorial databases o Main Memory Databases o Workstation based architectures of database systems o Management of Metadata and Knowledge "IMPORTANT DATES" Submission Deadline: Dec. 2, 1985 Notification to Authors: Feb. 10, 1986 Final Version Due: March 10, 1986 Conference: May 28-30, 1986 "Five" copies of a complete manuscript not exceeding 5000 words should be sent by December 2, 1985 to the address listed below: Carlo Zaniolo MCC 9430 Research Blvd. Echelon Building #1 Austin, Texas 78759 U.S.A. Papers from countries outside of North America are strongly encouraged. Limited travel funds for authors may be avail- able. The manuscript must include an abstract and approproate references. It is important to indicate what the original contribution of the paper is, and to include a comparison with relevant previous work. Papers longer than 25 double- spaced, typewritten pages are subject to immediate rejec- tion. Each paper will be reviewed by three Program Commit- tee members and judged on the basis of its originality, relevance, significance and overall quality. Outstanding papers will also be considered for publication in the ACM Transactions on Database Systems. Notification of acceptance or rejection of papers will be done by February 10, 1986. For inclusion in the Conference Proceedings, the final draft of each accepted paper, typed on special forms, must be received by the Program Chairman by March 10, 1986. Authors of accepted papers will be expected to sign a copyright release form. Panel sessions will be an important part of the conference. We solicit proposals for these panels. Each proposal must include the subject matter of the panel, the justification for having it, who would participate, and who would organize it.
