Fall 2008 Northeast DB/IR Day
We would like to cordially invite researchers in the fields of databases, information retrieval, and machine learning -- particularly those in the greater New York-Philadelphia-DC region -- to the Fall 2008 Northeast Database & Information Retrieval Day workshop, which will be held on Tuesday, October 14th, 2008 at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia.
Registration is free, and student attendees are particularly encouraged to present posters.
Please see:
for the (still evolving) program and for registration -- both for attendance and for posters.
The Northeast DB/IR Day is a forum for bringing database, machine learning, and information retrieval researchers and students from the Northeast region of the US - including both academic and research institutions. DB/IR Day aims to promote discussion across the database, learning, and information retrieval communities, and also to promote interactions across organizations and universities. It is held semi-annually, rotating among the major research institutions in the general Northeast US region.
The program includes distinguished keynote speakers, including HV Jagadish of U Michigan and Ken Ross of Columbia University, as well as presentations of student posters. Time is also reserved for interactions with other workshop attendees.
There are a limited number of spaces for student posters, so we encourage registration of the posters as early as possible at our Web site.
We hope to see you at Penn on October 14th!
