"Applications, 2nd Edition" focuses on moving object management, from the location management perspective to determining how constantly changing locations affect the traditional database and data mining technology. The book specifically describes the topics of moving objects modeling and location tracking, indexing and querying, clustering, location uncertainty, traffic-aware navigation and privacy issues, as well as the application to intelligent transportation systems. Through the book, the readers will be made familiar with the cutting-edge technologies in moving object management that can be effectively applied in LBS and transportation contexts. The second edition of this book significantly expands the coverage of the latest research on location privacy, traffic-aware navigation and uncertainty. The book has also been reorganized, with nearly all chapters rewritten, and several new chapters have been added to address the latest topics on moving objects management.

This book constitutes the workshop proceedings of the 18th International Conference on Database Systems for Advanced Applications, DASFAA 2013, held in Wuhan, China, in April 2013. The volume contains three workshops, each focusing on specific area that contributes to the main themes of the DASFAA conference: The First International Workshop on Big Data Management and Analytics (BDMA 2013), the Third International Workshop on Social Networks and Social Web (SNSM 2013) and the International Workshop on Semantic Computing and Personalization (SeCoP 2013).

This volume contains the proceedings of the International Conference on Advanced Data Mining and Applications (ADMA 2009), held in Beijing, China, during August 17-19, 2009. We are pleased to have a very strong program. Acceptance into the conference proceedings was extremely competitive. From the 322 submissions from 27 countries and regions, the Program Committee selected 34 full papers and 47 short papers for presentation at the conference and inclusion in the proceedings. The c- tributed papers cover a wide range of data mining topics and a diverse spectrum of interesting applications. The Program Committee worked very hard to select these papers through a rigorous review process and extensive discussion, and finally c- posed a diverse and exciting program for ADMA 2009. An important feature of the main program was the truly outstanding keynote spe- ers program. Edward Y. Chang, Director of Research, Google China, gave a talk titled "Confucius and 'Its' Intelligent Disciples". Being right in the forefront of data mining applications to the world's largest knowledge and data base, the Web, Dr. Chang - scribed how Google's Knowledge Search product help to improve the scalability of machine learning for Web-scale applications. Charles X. Ling, a seasoned researcher in data mining from the University of Western Ontario, Canada, talked about his in- vative applications of data mining and artificial intelligence to gifted child education.

On behalf of the Organizing Committee, we would like to welcome you to the proceedings of the 10th International Conference on Database Systems for - vanced Applications (DASFAA 2005). This conference provides an international forumfortechnicaldiscussionamongresearchers, developersandusersofdatabase systems from academia, business and industry. DASFAA focuses on research in databasetheory, andthedevelopmentandapplicationsofadvancedDBMSte- nologies. This was the second time that this conference has been held in China, the ?rst time was in Hong Kong in 2001. China is the third largest nation in terms of size, with the largest population in the world. The capital, Beijing, is a great metropolis, famous in Asia and throughout the world. We therefore were most privileged to host this conference in this renowned location. This volume contains papers selected for presentation and includes the three keynote talks, by Dr. Philip Yu, Prof. Elisa Bertino and Prof. Deyi Li. The conference also featured two tutorials: (1) Data Mining Techniques for MicroarrayDatasets, byLeiLiu, JiongYangandAnthonyTung, and(2)Pattern Management: Models, Languages, andArchitecturalIssues, byBarbaraCatania. ThetechnicalprogramoftheconferencewasselectedbyadistinguishedProgram Committee led by two PC Co-chairs, Lizhu Zhou and Beng Chin Ooi. The 89 members, half of whom reside outside Asia, made the committee a truly inter- tional one. They faced a di?cult task in selecting 67 regular papers and 15 short papersfrommanyverygoodcontributions.Thisyearthenumberofsubmissions, 302, was a record high for DASFAA conferences since the ?rst conference held in 1989 in Seoul, Korea.
