AMW 2017 - SECOND CALL FOR PAPERS
The 11th Alberto Mendelzon International Workshop on Foundations of Data Management (AMW 2017) 
https://www.fing.edu.uy/~lorenae/AMW17/

The Alberto Mendelzon International Workshop on Foundations of Data Management (AMW) is an event held yearly in Latin America, to honor the memory of Alberto Mendelzon, who greatly contributed to the Latin American scientific community. AMW is intended to promote research in Latin America; however, it is an international venue that welcomes submissions and participants from anywhere.

The workshop especially encourages the participation of Latin American and international graduate students and young researchers, and includes the AMW 2017 School tailored to them.

AMW will be held in 2017 in Montevideo, Uruguay. Previous editions took place at Panama City, Panama (2016); Lima, Peru (2015); Cartagena de Indias, Colombia (2014); Puebla, Mexico (2013); Ouro Preto, Brazil (2012); Santiago, Chile (2011); Buenos Aires, Argentina (2010); Arequipa, Peru (2009); Punta del Este, Uruguay (2007); Laguna San Rafael, Chile (2006).

We solicit submissions in the following areas of data management, but not limited to them: logic and databases; data integration; incompleteness and inconsistency in databases; data exchange; model theory and databases; conceptual modeling; knowledge bases; constraint databases; data mining; data modeling; web data management; data streams; data warehousing; query processing and optimization; database benchmarking, tuning, and testing; distributed and parallel databases; cloud data systems; multimedia databases; ontology-based data management; physical design; data privacy and security; data provenance; query languages; real-time data; semi-structured data; graph data; semantic web; sensor data; web services; spatial data; temporal data; transaction management; probabilistic databases; fuzzy data management; information retrieval; Web mining; data analytics; crowdsourcing; social networks; and data visualization. 

Papers addressing foundational aspects are particularly welcome. However, we also encourage the submission of papers (especially short papers; see submission instructions below) that illustrate applications of foundational results in real-world contexts.
