Workshop on the intersection between databases and software engineeering

Summary form only given. The complete workshop presentation was not made available for publication as part of the conference proceedings. In 1989, a workshop was held in Napa, California, USA. The meeting brought together database and software engineering researchers, and resulted in lively discussions concerning research issues of interest to both software engineering and database researchers. This workshop is, in a sense, meant to be a sequel to the Napa Workshop. We hope to not only assess the state of the art in this research specialty, but to also develop the nucleus of a research agenda that spans both communities. Attendance at the workshop is by invitation only. Fifty-three prospective attendees submitted position papers, which were reviewed by a seven person committee representing the software engineering and database fields. Twenty-three papers were accepted. Our goal for the workshop is to have open technical discussions, not presentations of specific papers. The topics of discussion will be motivated largely by the topics covered in the accepted position statements.
