8th ACM SIGMOD Workshop on Research Issues in Data Mining and
Knowledge Discovery (DMKD'03), 13th June 2003, San Diego, California
in conjunction with ACM SIGMOD Conference
URL: http://www.cs.rpi.edu/~zaki/DMKD03

WORKSHOP SCOPE & OBJECTIVES: This is the 8th workshop on DMKD held annually in conjunction with ACM SIGMOD conference. Rather than following a "mini-conference" format focusing on the presentation of polished research results, the DMKD workshop will foster an informal atmosphere, where researchers and practitioners can freely interact through short presentations and open discussions on their ongoing work as well as forward-looking research visions/experiences for future data-mining applications.

In addition to research on novel data-mining algorithms and experiences with innovative mining systems and applications, of particular interest in this year's DMKD workshop is the broad theme of "Future Trends in Data Mining." Topics of interest include (but are certainly not limited to):

• Privacy & Security issues in Mining
• Mining Data Streams
• Data Mining in Bioinformatics and Biological Database Systems
• Semi/Un-Structured Mining for the World Wide Web
• Future Trends/Past Reflections in Data Mining
