International Conference on
Database and Expert Systems Applications
DEXA 2004
http://www.dexa.org
August
30 - September 3, 2004

The aim of DEXA 2004 is to present both research contributions in the area
of data base and expert systems and a large spectrum of already implemented
or just being developed applications. DEXA will offer the opportunity to extensively
discuss requirements, problems, and solutions in the field. The workshop and
conference should inspire a fruitful dialogue between developers in practice,
users of database and expert systems, and scientists working in the field.
