XML-Based Data Management and Multimedia Engineering - EDBT 2002 Workshops : EDBT 2002 Workshops XMLDM, MDDE, and YRWS, Prague, Czech Republic, March 24-28, 2002, Revised Papers

This Volume Comprises Papers From The Following Three Workshops That Were Part Of The Complete Program For The International Conference On Extending Database Technology (edbt) Held In Prague, Czech Republic, In March 2002: Xml-based Data Management (xmldm) Second International Workshop On Multimedia Data And Document Engineering (mdde) Young Researchers Workshop (yrws) Together, The Three Workshops Featured 48 High-quality Papers Selected From Approximately 130 Submissions. It Was, Therefore, Difficult To Decide On The Papers That Were To Be Accepted For Presentation. We Believe That The Accepted Papers Substantially Contribute To Their Particular Fields Of Research. The Workshops Were An Excellent Basis For Intense And Highly Fruitful Discussions. The Quality And Quantity Of Papers Show That The Areas Of Interest For The Workshops Are Highly Active. A Large Number Of Excellent Researchers Are Working In Relevant Fields Producing Research Output That Is Not Only Of Interest To Other Researchers But Also For Industry. The Organizers And Participants Of The Workshops Were Highly Satisfied With The Output. The High Quality Of The Presenters And Workshop Participants Contributed To The Success Of Each Workshop. The Amazing Environment Of Prague And The Location Of The Edbt Conference Also Contributed To The Overall Success. Last, But Not Least, Our Sincere Thanks To The Conference Organizers – The Organizing Team Was Always Willing To Help And If There Were Things That Did Not Work, Assistance Was Quickly Available.
