Call for papers  RIDE-TQP 92

2nd International Workshop on Research Issues on Data Engineering:
Transaction and Query Processing (RIDE-TQP)

Feb. 2-3, 1992
Mission Palms, Arizona

This is the second in a series of annual workshops to be held
in conjunction with the IEEE CS International Conferences on
Data Engineering.
The RIDE-TQP Workshop is intended to bring together leading architects,
developers, practitioners, and researchers on transaction and query
processing.  Current trend in research and marketplace aims not only
to enhance the transaction or query processing performance, but also
to support both transaction and query processings concurrently on the
same system.  This trend is propelled by recent advances in computer
architecture, basic software, algorithms, and performance evaluation.
We are particularly interested in the current state-of-art and future
developments that integrate these advanced techniques.  Suggested
topics include but are not limited to:

 * TQP architectures, multiprocessors, large main memory, RAID,
   datacycle;

 * TQP software, database systems, OS support, distributed and
   heterogeneous databases;

 * TQP algorithms, fault tolerance and recovery, concurrency control,
   query optimization, intra-query parallelism, storage management;

 * TQP performance modeling and analysis, workload characterization,
   benchmarks, measurements.
