| | THEME:
| WORKSHOP CHAIR |
| | GIS'94 will serve as a forum for disseminating research
| T. Ozsoyoglu | and experience in the rapidly advancing area of geographic
| Case Western Res.| information systems. The workshop will bring together
| | leading researchers and developers and will strive toward
|ADVISORY COM.CHAIR| setting future research directions in this area.
| | Since the workshop will be held in conjunction with CIKM,
| H. Samet | participants will be able to maximize their interchange
|Univ. of Maryland | of experiences and knowledge among researchers and
| | practioners across the entire field of knowledge and
|PROGRAM CO-CHAIRS | information management.
