****************************************

Context :
---------
VLDB'06 (Very Large Data Bases, http://www.vldb.org/) is the 32th Conference
in the series: It is one of the top conferences on the management of data
bases in the world.
This workshop is the second workshop organized at VLDB on the topic of Data
Management in Grids, after the success of the 1st edition in 2005.

Topics of Interest :
--------------------
Since the mid nineties and the emergence of Grids, many research activities
have been initiated in relation to data management in these dynamic,
heterogeneous and cross-organisational environments. The database community
can offer her unique expertise in the management of very large, widely
distributed databases. Conversely, Grids offer a novel and very exciting
field of research for database scientists both in terms of application
domains and fundamental research.

This workshop is intended to bring together these two communities, and thus
to offer a unique workspace for researchers to discuss and exchange ideas
about the emerging challenges and opportunities offered by Data Grids.
Relevant topics for the workshop include all aspects related to the
management of data in a Grid (non-exhaustive
list) :
-         Data Access
-         Data Interoperability
-         Semantic Grids
-         Mediation / Negotiation
-         Security: access control, policy, privacy
-         Authenticity and integrity
-         Data Placement: replication, migration
-         Data Streams
-         Metadata Management
-         Indexing
-         Query processing
-         Caching
-         Data Warehouses
-         Unique identification of data entities
-         Data Definition/Model Management
-         Data De-identification
-         Data scheduler and data-aware scheduling
-         Information sharing
-         Information dissemination
-         Infrastructure independence for data management
-         Federation of data management systems
-         Applications dealing with large databases

Submission

It is foreseen that full papers will be published by Springer in a LNCS
volume (last year workshop was published this way).

At least one author is expected to register for the workshop and present the
work.
