Workshop proceedings to be published by IEEE Computer Society Press
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Outline:
--------
Relational database systems are designed for robust and efficient
On-Line Transaction Processing (OLTP) on operational data. These systems
are not well suited for the sophisticated and complex decision support
activities required by many organizations for their effective management.
This has resulted in the development of new technology in the form of
a data warehouse, a separate repository that selects data from many
operational data sources and On-Line Analytical Processing (OLAP) tools.
These tools are designed for complex data analysis (such as multidimensional
data analysis) and decision support activities. Today, many organizations are
building, or planning to develop a data warehouse for their operational
and analytical processing needs. The successful implementation of a data warehouse
depends on data extraction, transformation and transportation tools which deliver
accurate and consistent data.
In this workshop, we invite papers discussing the research issues related to
data warehouse design, implementation, maintenance, and OLAP technology, and also
industrial expreriences on dealing with data warehousing.
The major topics of interest include but are not limited to:
------
Data Warehouse Architecture
Data Quality
Transaction Processing in Data Warehouses
Design and Maintenance of Metadata Repository
Multidimensional Data Model
Decision Support Systems
ROLAP/MOLAP Systems
Warehouse Data Maintenance
Materialized View Maintenance/Adaptation
Query Optimization
Multidimensional Query Languages
Virtual Organization
Analytical frond-end tools
Warehouse Implementation
Development of Data warehouse applications
