Advances in Database Engineered Applications 2023

Dear Colleagues,

The 27th International Database Engineering & Applications Symposium (IDEAS-II-2023) will be held in Heraklion, Crete, Greece on May 5–7 2023. This conference is an international forum for data engineering researchers, practitioners, developers, and application users to explore revolutionary ideas and results, and to exchange techniques, tools, and experiences. For more information, please visit the following link: https://conferences.sigappfr.org/ideas2023/.

The authors of a number of high-quality full papers will be invited after the conference to submit revised and extended versions of their originally accepted conference papers to this Special Issue of Computers, published by MDPI, in open access format. The selection of these papers will be based on their ratings in the conference review process, the quality of the presentation during the conference, and the expected impact on the research community. Each submission to this Special Issue should contain at least 50% new material, e.g., in the form of technical extensions, more in-depth evaluations, or additional use cases and a change in the title, abstract, and keywords. These extended submissions will undergo a peer-review process according to the journal’s rules of action. At least two technical committees will act as reviewers for each extended article submitted to this Special Issue; if needed, additional external reviewers will be invited to guarantee a high-quality reviewing process.
