06431 Summary -- Scalable Data Management in Evolving Networks"

Network technologies like mobile ad-hoc networks, peer-to-peer systems, and sensor networks are getting increasingly popular, but come up with new challenges to scalable data management because data management techniques developed for fixed-wired networks that usually depend on reliable and stable networks can not directly be used. The goal of this Dagstuhl Seminar was to identify common challenges in these popular network technologies problems, and to get a better understanding of the generality and applicability of solutions to the major problems in scalable data management in these areas
