Our vision: "from Data- to Pattern- Base Management Systems"
With the advent of hardware advances, complex information resulting from data intensive applications is posing requirements for today's (and tomorrow's) Database Management Systems (DBMSs). Such information possesses a number of key features such as huge volume of data, diversity and complexity. We claim that the term pattern is a good candidate for generic representation of these novel information types. PANDA Working Group will study current state-of-the-art in pattern management and explore novel theorical and practical aspects of a pattern-based management system (so-called, PBMS). Aided by an Industrial Advisory Board, PANDA-WG will face application of the novel PBMS technology in real needs, such as those found in financial and telecommunications fields.
