FYI... -------- Original Message -------- Subject: TaPP '11 Call for Contributions Now Available Date: Tue, 1 Mar 2011 16:47:20 -0800 From: Lionel Garth Jones <lgj(a)usenix.org> To: info(a)muug.mb.ca, gedetil(a)muug.mb.ca The Program Committee for the 3rd Workshop on the Theory and Practice of Provenance (TaPP '11) invites you to submit short papers on ongoing work. TaPP '11 will bring together researchers and practitioners doing innovative work in the area of provenance. With the … [View More]deluge of digital data we are currently experiencing, it has become increasingly important to capture and understand the origins and derivation of data--its provenance. Provenance provides important documentation that is an essential part of the quality of data, and it is essential to the trust we put in, for example, the data we find on the Web and the data that is derived from scientific experiments. The workshop may cover any topic related to theoretical or practical aspects of provenance, including but not limited to: provenance in databases, work flows, programming languages, security, software engineering, or systems; provenance on the Web; or real-world applications of or requirements for provenance. The Program Committee is determined to make TaPP '11 a real workshop at which new ideas are discussed and developed and where the participants can learn how other subjects make use of provenance. While the workshop will have online proceedings, the Committee does not want the workshop to become another "mini-conference" that has nothing but paper presentations. The Committee is eager to receive short papers and vision papers describing challenges for provenance research, brief descriptions of new applications, proposals for mini-tutorials, pie-in-the sky research ideas, and anything that will create a successful workshop. While brief and readable descriptions of research are encouraged, recycled conference submissions are strongly discouraged. Submissions are due April 8, 2011, at 11:59 p.m. PDT. More information and submission guidelines are available at http://www.usenix.org/tapp11/cfpa Tapp '11 will take place June 20-22, 2011, in Heraklion, Crete, Greece, the week after the meeting of ACM SIGMOD in Athens. We look forward to receiving your submissions!
