Requirements: Papers should describe original work; they should emphasize completed work rather than intended work, and should indicate clearly the state of completion of the reported results. Wherever appropriate, concrete evaluation results should be included. Submissions will be judged on correctness, originality, technical strength, significance and relevance to the conference, and interest to the attendees. Important Dates: Submission of proposals for oral and poster papers: 20 May 2008 Notification of acceptance of oral papers, posters: 30 June 2008 Final versions for the proceedings: 31 July 2008 Reviewing: The reviewing of the papers will be blind. Reviewing will be managed by an international Program Committee. Final decisions on the technical program will be made by the Conference Program Committee. Submission: The abstract should be of 1500 words maximum. The duration of the paper presentation should be estimated at 20-25 minutes. As reviewing will be blind, the abstract should not include the authors' names and affiliations. Furthermore, self-references that reveal the author's identity, should be avoided. Papers that do not conform to these requirements will be rejected without review. The MS-Word/RTF document template for papers will be available from this page soon. Submissions should be sent to fassbl2008ffzg.hr Message 2: The 2nd KDD Workshop on Mining Multiple Info. Sources

Representative questions to be addressed include but are not limited to: 1. Harnessing Complex Data Relationship a. Database similarity assessment b. Automatic schema mapping and relationship discovery c. New mapping framework for multiple information sources d. Data source classification and clustering e. Data cleansing, data preparation, conflict and inconsistency resolution 2. Integrative and Cooperative Mining a. Model integration for heterogeneous information sources b. Mode transferring across different data domains c. Incremental and scalable data mining algorithms d. Multi-tasks multi-sources co-learning for multiple information sources 3. Differentiation and Correlation a. Local pattern analysis and fusion b. Global pattern synthesizing and assessment c. Merging local rules for global pattern discovery d. Pattern summarization from multiple datasets e. Multi-dimensional pattern search and comparison f. Pattern comparison across multiple data sources g. Inter pattern discovery from complex data sources 4. Stream data mining algorithms a. Clustering and classification of data of changing distributions b. Data stream processing, storage, and retrieval systems c. Sensor networking 5. Security and privacy issues in multiple information sources 6. Interactive data mining systems a. Query languages for mining multiple information sources b. Query optimization for distributed data mining c. Distributed data mining operators in supporting interactive data mining For submission of the paper, please use Easychair system at http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=mmis08 Important Dates: Deadline of Paper Submission: May 30, 2008 Acceptance Notification: June 15, 2008 Camera-ready Paper Submission: June 20, 2008 Organizing Committee: Workshop Co-chairs: Xingquan Zhu, Florida Atlantic University Ruoming Jin, Kent State University Yuri Breitbart, Kent State University Program Committee: Walid G.
