The Third International Symposium on
Cooperative Database Systems for Advanced Applications
April 23-24, 2001, Beijing, China

SCOPE

Recent advances in Internet and World Wide Web have made access to various databases and data resources much easier. At the same time they induce many more problems to make intelligent usage of all data that are both available and relevant. A result of this novel challenges is a considerable increase in the worldwide research effort to elaborate concepts and techniques for efficient support of cooperative work over the Internet and cooperative building of advanced database applications. These issues already provided many lively discussions during the previous CODAS Symposia: the first one was held in Kyoto, Japan, December 1996 (proceedings published by World Scientific Publishing Co.), the second one was held in Wollongong, Australia, March 1999 (proceedings published by Springer-Verlag Publishing Co.). The purpose of this third symposium is to exchange again most recent research results on all issues related to cooperative database systems and applications. We invite papers on general database research as well as database systems for cooperative work.
