Original papers on both theoretical and practical data engineering, and its related research are welcome to this special section. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following:
–Core Technologies: file structure, storage, query processing, query languages, transaction processing, indexes, stream processing, security and privacy
–Databases: cloud computing, distributed and parallel databases, multimedia databases, spatial and temporal databases, mobile databases, scientific databases, XML and semi-structured databases, graph management, social networks, sensor databases, data management in P2P and grid, data integration, probabilistic database, crowd sourcing
–Information Retrieval: information extraction and summarization, information recommendation
–Data Mining: data warehouse, OLAP, data mining algorithms, text mining, Web mining
–Web Technologies: Web search engines, contents technologies, meta-data, semantic Web, Web services
–Applications: E-commerce, e-learning, digital libraries, data archive,  information and data broadcasting, visualization, user interfaces
Papers which are not on data engineering may be rejected without review.
