IEEE Scientific Data Management workshops

[Bob Coyne currently chairs the IEEE P1244 Storage System Standards
Working Group under the IEEE Computer Society Mass Storage Systems
and Technology Techical Committee (MSS&TC).  He is organizing a
series of Data Management Workshops to study the next layer up
from raw storage services.  This is a note which he has been
distributing.]

There is a meeting planned for Jan 20th at Scripps in San Diego to
form a project committee to plan and coordinate a series of 4 IEEE
MSS&TC Specialist Workshops on Data Management. The purpose of the
meeting is to determine the scope and objectives of the Specialist
Workshops, and to plan for the first program committee meeting.
The first workshop is planned for October, 1993.

As project committee chair, I am soliciting participants for the
Project Committee and the 4 Program Committees. Please send your
request to participate in this new MSS&TC project to
coyne@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx or leave a phone message at
(713) 282-7274.

Regards, Bob

Notes from the last MSS&TC Executive Committee Meeting:

The IEEE Mass Storage Systems and Technology Technical Committee
is sponsoring a series of specialist work shops on Data
Management.

The purpose of the specialist workshop series is to

  1. Discuss the need for standards (std I/Fs) between data
     management systems and storage systems.

  2. Discuss the relationship between

     Data Access,
     Data Format,
     Data Organization, and
     Storage Systems

  3. Make a recommendation to the IEEE about the need for new
     standards (or about the lack of need).

  Areas of particular interest include:

  1. Parallel-aware storage systems requirements for high
     performance data management systems.

  2. Storage system requirements and issues for data management
     systems supporting the analysis and interpretation of large
     interdisciplinary, complex data bases.

  3. The data aspects of horizontal and vertical integration of
     interdisciplinary data bases, and system architectures needed
     for interrogating very large data bases.
