Outline: 
--------
The objective of the Fifth International Conference on Data Warehousing and 
Knowledge Discovery (DaWaK 2003) is to bring together researchers, developers 
and 
practitioners to discuss research issues and experience in developing and 
deploying 
data warehousing and knowledge discovery systems, applications, and solutions. 
This year the conference will also focus on two emerging areas, namely, 
Streaming Data 
and Biological Data Computation. 
 

Major Tracks:
-------------

Data Warehousing
Knowledge Discovery
Streaming and Biological Data Computation

 
The topics of interest include in these tracks but are not limited to:

Paper Submission Details:
-------------------------
Authors are invited to submit research and application papers, not exceeding 
5000 words, 
representing original, previously unpublished work. Papers that substantially 
exceed this 
limit will be rejected without review. However, it is possible to include 
additional, 
clarifying material in an appendix to the paper. Papers which have been 
submitted in 
identical form to another scientific event will also be rejected without 
review. 
Submitted papers will be carefully evaluated based on originality, 
significance, 
technical soundness, and clarity of exposition. All papers will be refereed by 
three 
members of the program committee.

All accepted papers will be published in Lecture Notes in Computer Science 
(LNCS) by 
Springer-Verlag. Paper submissions in LNCS format 
(http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html) would be highly appreciated. 
The maximum number of pages for the final version will be 10 pages. 

Authors are requested to submit the abstract of their paper on-line 
(www.dexa.org) 
to be received by March 3, 2003. You should submit the file of your paper 
on-line 
(www.dexa.org) to be received by March 10, 2003. Alternatively, submit 5 hard 
copies of 
your paper to be  received by March 10, 2003 to the following address: DAWAK 
2003, 
c/o FAW Secretary, University of Linz, A-4040 Linz, Austria.
