ICDT 2018 – 21st INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON DATABASE THEORY 
  Call for Papers
  March 26-29, 2018, Vienna, Austria
  http://icdt2018.technion.ac.il/
* ICDT is a series of scientific conferences on research of data management 
  theory, providing an international forum for the communication of advances 
  in the field. Since 2009, it is annually and jointly held with the EDBT 
  conference series. Starting in 2018, ICDT will have a Reach-Out track 
  dedicated to papers that suggest novel important directions for database 
  theory. The focus of this track in 2018 is on the topic of "Foundations 
  for Emerging Data Applications", targeting papers that lay the formal 
  foundations of novel data models and/or novel operations/analyses that are 
  driven by the plethora of data-centric applications in the era of Big Data.
* Every topic related to the principles of data management is relevant to 
  ICDT. Examples of relevant topics are: data mining; information extraction; 
  information retrieval; database aspects of machine learning; distributed 
  and parallel databases; cloud computing; connections between databases and 
  knowledge representation; graph databases; (semantic) Web data; Web 
  services; data streams; sketching; data-centric (business) process 
  management; workflows; data and knowledge integration and exchange; data 
  provenance; views and data warehouses; domain-specific databases; deductive 
  databases; data privacy and security; concurrency and recovery; data 
  models, design, structures, semantics; query languages and algorithms for 
  data management
* Important dates:  First cycle abstract deadline: March 18, 2017; Full paper 
  deadline: March 25, 2017; Notification: May 29, 2017; Second cycle abstract 
  deadline: September 11, 2017; Full paper deadline: September 18, 2017;
