Database Systems for Advanced Applications 13th International Conference, DASFAA 2008, New Delhi, India, March 19-21, 2008, Proceedings

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 13th International Conference on Database Systems for Advanced Applications, DASFAA 2008, held in New Delhi, India, in March 2008.
The 30 revised full papers and 27 revised short papers presented together with the abstracts of 3 invited talks as well as 8 demonstration papers and a panel discussion motivation were carefully reviewed and selected from 173 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on XML schemas, data mining, spatial data, indexes and cubes, data streams, P2P and transactions, XML processing, complex pattern processing, IR techniques, queries and transactions, data mining, XML databases, data warehouses and industrial applications, as well as mobile and distributed data.
