The Brazilian Symposium on Databases (SBBD) comes to 27th edition in 2012. This traditional event of brazilian scientific community on Database Technology is supported by Brazilian Computer Society (SBC) and this year will be hosted in São Paulo, São Paulo State, Brazil. The event will meet professors, researchers, Information Technology professionals and students. This event is organized as set of many different technical tracks, with special attention of this text to SBBD Lectures.
SBBD Lectures are small courses about some specific subject and aim to present an introductory or advanced discussion concerning with current trends on Database research. During lectures, audience has the opportunity to open discussions about relevant subjects and collaborate on building a collective knowledge with experts. This year, lectures are organized as 4-hour presentations, favoring the speaker with more time to introduce and develop his or her works.
In 2012, some special attention was given to undergraduate students in Computer Science and related courses. We classify SBBD Lectures as a single opportunity to meet students and debate relevant subjects, that may explored through both graduation courses and companies interested in real world problems. Although the motivation indicates undergraduation students, all covered subjects would be naturally used on graduation studies and research projects.
Because of some internal logistics decisions of SBBD, WebMedia and SBSC, only two (2) proposals were accepted. The choice has considered the analysis of nine (9) initial proposals, submitted by research
