Date: Thu, 8 May 2003 01:16:47 -0400 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2653.19) Content-Type: text/plain Hello! At this ACS Meeting this coming September 7-11, 2003, there will be a symposium entitled 'Emerging Trends in Discovery Data Integration' and I invite you to participate! We're all familiar with the idea of data integration, having talked about it for years and even made substantial progress toward 'putting it all together,' but the landscape is changing. Today's integration is much more complex than yesterday's because of new technologies and new business demands. Suggested topics for talks in this session are: - The various _types_ of data to be brought together - more diverse than in the past - The increasing demand for coherent functioning of diverse systems - Different perspectives on what 'integration' means. - Enabling technologies - from a scientist's perspective - Federation vs. data warehousing - Information integration across organizational/functional/national boundaries - Novel user interfaces that help get the job done If you have other ideas about discovery data integration, please let me know! You can submit abstracts on-line using OASYS (http://oasys.acs.org/oasys.htm), e-mail, fax, or mail. See below for addresses: Questions and ideas are also welcome. See you in New York!
