Research Topics in Statistical and Scientific Database Management: the IV SSDBM

The papers presented at the IV SSDBM describe the different results reached in the context of Statistical and Scientific Database Management. In addition to the traditional topics (e.g., data model, physical organization and data retrieval, user interface and security) new topics emerged which appear to be growing in importance. Those include temporal data, statistical knowledge based decision support systems, geographical data and object oriented user interface. The interest aroused by and the success of the conference, confirmed by the constant, unfailing presence of all participants, is now an established event, held every two years, thus becoming a fixed reference-point for researchers and users in this field.
