Data Streams Track

Call for Papers
The rapid development in information science and technology in general and in growth complexity and volume of data in particular has introduced new challenges for the research community. Many sources produce data continuously. Examples include sensor networks, wireless networks, radio frequency identification (RFID), customer click streams, telephone records, multimedia data, scientific data, sets of retail chain transactions, etc. These sources are called data streams. A data stream is an ordered sequence of instances that can be read only once or a small number of times using limited computing and storage capabilities. These sources of data are characterized by being open-ended, flowing at high-speed, and generated by non stationary distributions.

TOPICS OF INTEREST
We are looking for original, unpublished work related to algorithms, methods and applications on data streams. Topics include (but are not restricted)to:


Data Stream Models
Data Stream Management Systems
Data Stream Query Languages
Continuous queries and Summarization from Data Streams
Sampling Data Streams
Single-Pass Algorithms
Scalable Algorithms
Change Detection Algorithms
Clustering on Data Streams
Classification and Regression on Data Streams
Association Rules on Data Streams
Feature Selection on Data Streams
Visualization Techniques for Data Streams
Evaluation of Data Streams Models
Data Stream applications
Sensor Networks
Real-Time Applications

PAPER SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
Papers should be submitted in PDF using the SAC 2010 conference management system: http://sac.cs.iupui.edu/SAC2010/. The paper should omit authors and affiliations. Author names and addresses must not appear in the body of the paper, self-reference must be in the third person, attribution to the author(s) must be in the form of "author", and bibliographical entries by the author(s) must also be in the form of "author". This is to facilitate blind review. Only the title should be shown at the first page without the author's information. Each submitted paper will be fully refereed and undergo a blind review process by at least three referees. The conference proceedings will be published by ACM. All accepted papers should be submitted in ACM 2-column camera ready format for publication in the symposium proceedings. The maximum number of pages allowed for the final papers is 5 pages (about 4000 words), with the option (at additional expense) to add up to three (3) more pages. There is a set of templates to support the required paper format for a number of document preparation systems at: http://www.acm.org/sigs/pubs/proceed/template.html
