Welcome to MDM 2018 in Aalborg, Denmark
The MDM series of conferences, since its debut in 1999, has established itself as a prestigious forum for the exchange of innovative and significant research results in mobile data management. The conference provides unique opportunities to bring researchers, engineers, and practitioners together to explore new ideas, techniques, and tools, and exchange experiences. The conference this year is hosted by Computer Science department of Aalborg University.
Comprising both research and industry tracks, it serves as an important bridge between academic researchers and industry researchers. Along with the presentations of research publications, it also serves as a meeting place for technical demonstrations (demos), workshops, advanced seminars, panel discussions as well as PhD forum and Industrial forum to cater PhD students and industrial developers.
The conference focuses on research contributions in data management in mobile, ubiquitous and pervasive computing.
