Workshop on Semantic Spatial Databases
Abstract
This grant supported a workshop on Next Generation Database Design and Applications that was held at Florida International University's High Performance Database Research Center (FIU HPDRC) on April 30, 1998 and May 1, 1998. This workshop featured HPDRC-developed technology and facilitated the exchange of ideas with other researchers. Attendance was by invitation; over 70 people attended the workshop. Sessions on medical informatics, advances in database design, GIS and spatial data applications, and semantic/object-oriented database management systems were held. The workshops keynote speakers were Professor Wesley Chu (UCLA), Mr. Richard Campanella (a Remote Sensing/GIS Specialist with the Institute for Technology Development), Professor Naphtali Rishe (FIU HPDRC), and Mr. Kent Wreder (the Corporate Director of Object Technology for Baptist Health Systems). The workshop facilitated the professional development of graduate and undergraduate students. The HPDRC's students presented their projects at poster sessions held during this workshop and published abstracts or articles describing their work in the Workshop's proceedings.
