AIMS AND SCOPE

High performance of modern Graphics Processing Units may be utilized not only for graphics related application but also for general computing. This computing power has been utilized in new variants of many algorithms from almost every computer science domain. Unfortunately, while other application domains strongly benefit from utilizing the GPUs, databases related applications seem not to get enough attention. The main goal of GPUs in Databases workshop is to fill this gap. This event is devoted to sharing the knowledge related to applying GPUs in Database environments and to discuss possible future development of this application domain.

TOPICS

List of topics of the GID workshop includes (but is not limited to):

1. Data compression on GPUs
    * lossless/lossy compression and decompression
    * real time compression and decompression of multimedia
2. GPUs in databases and data warehouses
    * join processing
    * data indexing
    * data aggregation
    * bulk query processing
    * analytical query processing
3. Data mining using GPUs
    * classification
    * frequent itemsets and association rules
    * frequent subgraphs
    * sequential patterns
    * clustering
    * social networks mining
    * regression
4. Stream processing
    * query processing in streaming databases
    * stream compression/decompression
5. Applications of GPUs in bioinformatics
6. Data oriented GPU primitives
    * sorting
    * searching
    * parallel insertion anddata structure modification

SUBMISSION

A volume with workshop papers will be published by Springer in the Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing series (http://www.springer.com/series/11156), for distribution among workshop participants during the workshop. Camera-ready papers are to be prepared in LaTeX (detailed instructions will be provided).

The authors of the best workshop papers will be invited to prepare extended versions of their papers after the workshop. The extended papers will appear in the LNCS TLDKS Journal (Transactions on Large Scale Data and Knowledge-Centered Systems), which is indexed by DBLP and Scopus (http://tldks.faw.at).

Publication of selected papers in the journal will be subject to the second round of reviews (to verify if the paper satisfies the journal requirements, including 30% of new content compared to the version from the AISC proceedings). In order to qualify for the journal, the paper will have to be presented at the workshop by one of its authors.

Papers will be refereed and accepted on the basis of their scientific merit and relevance to the workshop. Each paper will be reviewed by at least two Program Committee members. Duplicate submissions are not allowed, i.e. submitted papers must not overlap substantially with any other papers of the same author(s) submitted elsewhere (i.e. journal, conference, workshop etc.).

Workshop papers must not exceed 10 pages in the AISC format and must comply with the AISC formatting guidelines available at http://www.springer.com/series/11156 (the link to "Instructions for Authors" is at the right hand side). All papers (in PDF file format) should be submitted electronically via EasyChair Conference Management
System. For details please refer to submission instruction page.
