<p class="MsoPlainText">The International Conference on Extending Database Technology is a leading international forum for database researchers, practitioners, developers, and users to discuss cutting-edge ideas, and to exchange techniques, tools, and experiences
related to data management. Data management constitutes the essential enabling technology for scientific, engineering, business, and social communities. Data management technology is driven by the needs in applications such as the semantic web, the management
of scientific data, data management at Web scale, virtual libraries, and embedded databases. The database community has a continuing tradition of contributing with models, algorithms, and architectures, to the set of tools and applications enabling day-to-day
functioning of our societies. Faced with the broad challenges of today's applications, data management technology constantly broadens its reach, exploiting new hardware and software to achieve new innovative results.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">EDBT 2013 invites submissions of original research contributions, as well as descriptions of industrial and application achievements and proposals for panels, tutorials and software demonstrations. We encourage submissions relating to
all aspects of data management defined broadly, and particularly encourage work on topics of emerging interest in the research and development communities.<o:p></o:p></p>
