PKDD is one of the most important events in the field of Knowledge Discovery in Databases (KDD) and attracts both researchers and practitioners from all over the world. You can learn more about the goals and the program of the conference at the internet address http://lisp.vse.cz/pkdd99/. PKDD'99 conference in Prague is the third in the series of PKDD conferences: in 1997 it was held in Trondheim, Norway, and in 1998 in Nantes, France. The number of participants grew between 1997 and 1998 at the rate compatible with the history of the main international KDD conferences in the US, which also started with similar numbers of participants, while now they attract above 600 participants and involve a substantial industrial track of business presentations, demos and exhibits. In addition, in 1998 more than 80 participants attended a special session on data mining, aimed at the industry and local government in the Nantes region, representing 64 different companies or branches in different cities. A similar special session will be organized in Prague for participants from the Czech Republic and from Slovak Republic on September 14, 1999. An important part of PKDD'99 will be exhibitions of KDD relevant literature and demonstrations of software for data mining and knowledge discovery, including both commercial and experimental systems.
