The objective of the half-day workshop CoMoNoS is to explore opportunities for conceptual modeling, addressing real-world problems that arise with NoSQL data stores (like MongoDB, Couchbase, Cassandra, or Neo4j). In designing an application backed by a NoSQL data store, developers face specific challenges that match the strengths of the database community.
The purpose of this workshop is to grow a community of researchers and industry practitioners working on conceptual modeling for NoSQL data stores. With this workshop, we hope to provide the necessary breeding ground: We are convinced that practitioners will ultimately benefit from the experience of the database research community. At the same time, we want to provide a forum for researchers to learn about the actual pain points faced by practitioners.
In the context of conceptual modeling for NoSQL data stores, the scope of the workshop includes, but is not limited to the following topics:
Data modeling for schema-flexible or schema-free NoSQL data stores, including graph databases
Agile modeling
Modeling for DevOps
Data model reverse engineering (schema extraction)
Graph matching and graph transformation
Unified data modeling for polystores
Metamodeling
Data model evolution
Visualization of data models and data instances
Modeling and concurrency control
Modeling sharding and replication strategies
Modeling for query optimization
Process mining
Empirical studies and real-world use cases
Migrating software architectures to NoSQL data store
Workshop papers submission: Januar 16, January 09, 2023 (AoE)
Workshop papers notification: February 06, 2023 (AoE)
Final (camera-ready) version of papers: February 23, 2023 (AoE)
Workshop: March 28, 2023
The limit for submitted papers (as well as for final, camera-ready papers) is 10 pages. Short papers have a limit of 4 pages. The page limits include all material, references and appendices.
Papers should be in 2-column style (including all material) and must be formatted with the same rules as all EDBT Workshop papers using the CEUR-ART style (templates for LaTeX and DOCX are available here: http://ceur-ws.org/Vol-XXX/CEURART.zip, and on Overleaf: https://www.overleaf.com/read/gwhxnqcghhdt).
Please make sure to enable the two column style in the template. All submissions will be reviewed in a single-blind manner. All accepted workshop papers will be published in the CEUR-WS series, in a joint volume with all EDBT 2023 workshops.
Manuscripts not submitted in the CEUR-ART style or exceeding the page limit will not be reviewed and automatically rejected.
Submission is done through EasyChair: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=comonos2023
