VLDB is a premier annual international forum for data management and
database researchers, vendors, practitioners, application developers,
and users. It will cover current issues in data management, database
and information systems research. Data management and databases remain
among the main technological cornerstones of emerging applications of
the twenty-first century.

The main tracks of the conference, featuring research talks, tutorials
and demonstrations, are held from 14th to 16th September. This year's
keynote speakers are Divesh Srivastava, from AT&T and Paul Matsudaira,
from NUS. VLDB 2010 hosts six tutorials: "Big Data and Cloud
Computing: New Wine or just New Bottles?" by Divyakant Agrawal,
Sudipto Das, and Amr El Abbadi, "Data Management and Mining in
Internet Ad Systems" by S. Muthukrishnan, "Similarity Search and
Mining in Uncertain Databases" by Hans-Peter Kriegel, Matthias Renz,
Thomas Bernecker, and Andreas Zuefle, "Event Processing - Past,
Present, Future" by Opher Etzion, "Similarity Searching: Indexing,
Nearest Neighbor Finding, Dimensionality Reduction, and Embedding
Methods in Multimedia Databases" by Hanan Samet, and "Distributed
Caching Platforms" by Anil Nori.

Before and after the main conference, VLDB is hosting a PhD workshop
and 10 thematic workshops. The PhD workshop, the 8th International
Workshop on Quality in Databases (QDB), the Workshop on Personalized
Access, the Workshop on Profile Management, and Context Awareness in
Databases (PersDB), the 7th International Workshop on Data Management
for Sensor Networks (DMSN), the 4th International Workshop on
Management of Uncertain Data (MUD), the 1st International Workshop on
Accelerating Data Management Systems Using Modern Processor and
Storage Architectures (ADM) and the Workshop on Enabling Real-Time
Business Intelligence (BIRTE) take place on 13th September. The
Workshop on Semantic Data Management (SemData), the 7th VLDB Workshop
on Secure Data Management (SDM), the 7th International XML Database
Symposium (XSym) and the TPC Technology Conference on Performance
Evaluation and Benchmarking (TPCTC) take place on 17th September.

Singapore is situated at the southern tip of the Malay Peninsula in
South-East Asia. It provides all the modern facilities conducive to
effective work: a safe environment, comfortable accommodation,
efficient transportation and effective information and communication
infrastructure. It is a vibrant Science & Technology hub where several
universities and numerous public and corporate research institutes
perform high-quality research over a broad range of disciplinary and
cross-disciplinary areas. Singapore is a small and prosperous
cosmopolitan nation that offers to the visitor the cultural diversity
of its four main ethnic groups, namely, Chinese, Malays, Indians and
Eurasians. With museums, theme parks, beaches, nature parks and two
new integrated resorts as well as bustling shopping and dining
heavens, Singapore is an excellent place to unwind. It is also just a
short and cheap hop away from Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, Cambodia
and other exciting destinations. The combination of an excellent
technical programme and a meticulously-planned event in an unique
cultural setting will make Singapore an unforgettable VLDB experience.

The conference co-organizers---National University of Singapore,
Nanyang Technological University, and Singapore Management
University---are looking forward to your visit.
