DMIEW 2009

In recent few years, wireless networks have become incredibly popular. Various types of wireless networks such as cell-phone networks, wireless LANs, ad-hoc networks, sensor networks, and mesh networks have been developed at many places. In adttion, the number of wireless terminals and information generated by such terminals has increased repidly. Thus, we are in a time which we could call the "Information-Explosion Era."

This workshop aims to deliver a platform for discussions and technical presentations on the current challenges and solutions, as well as directions for future research directions on data management techniques of wireless networks in the information-explosion era.
