** ABOUT OJDB
This special issue will be published in the Open Journal of Databases 
(OJDB) (http://www.ronpub.com/journals/ojdb). OJDB, an open access and 
peer-reviewed online journal, publishes original and creative research 
results on database technologies. OJDB distributes its articles under 
the open access model. All articles of OJDB are fully open access and 
online available to readers free of charge. There is no restriction on 
the length of the papers. Accepted manuscripts are published online 
immediately.

** ABOUT THIS SPECIAL ISSUE:
In recent years, a variety of new research fields and technologies have 
emerged and are emerging, and are becoming increasingly important, like 
Internet of Things, Big Data, Nano Technology and Cloud Computing. These 
emerging technologies involve a large number of data and new types of 
data, e.g. Nano data, Web data, linked data and cloud of data, and they 
bring new challenges in the management and analysis of data. The special 
issue aims to identify and address the challenges of data management in 
the new research fields. We are interested in new approaches, database 
systems, architectures, applications, data structures and algorithms for 
efficient data management, analysis and query processing. We also 
welcome novel research ideas on how applying traditional database 
technologies to the management of new types of data.

Emerging Hardware Technologies for Databases has also significantly 
increased. Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs), General Purpose 
Computation on Graphics Processing Unit (GPGPUs), Smart SSDs and servers 
with huge main memories became available and offer new possibilities for 
speeding up processing. Traditional processing techniques in database 
systems have to be rethink as the computational models and processing 
capabilities of these new hardware alternatives differ significantly 
from existing CPU-centric approaches. FPGAs allow for massively parallel 
processing at low clock frequency, and in addition permit runtime 
adaption of processing units to the current processing requirements by 
mean of partial reconfiguration. GPGPUs can be seen as stream processors 
that can operate massively in parallel by running one kernel on many 
records in a stream at once. Smart SSDs can already process data inside 
the SSD before transferred to CPUs on slower network connections. Server 
with terabytes of main memory can now access and hold data in main 
memory, which had to be stored and administrated on slow discs or SSDs 
in the past. To make best use of these capabilities, new algorithms, new 
structures for data representation as well as new techniques for data 
management have to be developed. Another goal of this special issue is 
to present the latest results and new ideas in the broad area of 
emerging hardware technologies for database systems.
