Organization of Conferences or Workshops

Besides the organization of the workshops FDC/EGC'05) and MDM/KDD'05, we are involved in others organization tasks:

• Member of the organizing committee of the first IEEE international workshop on ``Mining Complex Data'' (held in conjunction with ICDM, Houston, November): F. Masséglia.

• Organisation of our annual AxIS workshop at Inria Rocquencourt (24-26 october): S. Aubin, S. Honnorat, Y. Lechevallier and B. Trousse. Monthly team meetings were organised by videoconferecne between AxIS Sophia Antipolis and AxIS Rocquencourt.

AxIS Web Server

AxIS maintains an external and an internal Web site allowing the access to lots of information, including software developed in the team, our publications, relevant events (conferences, workshops) and information related to the conferences and seminar we organise. URL: http://www-sop.inria.fr/axis/ .

S. Chelcea delevoped our publication management tool called ``BibAdmin''. BibAdmin is a collection of PHP/MySQL scripts for bibliographic (Bibtex) management over the Web. Publications are stored in a MySQL database and can be added/edited/modified via a Web interface. It is specially designed for research teams to easily manage their publications or references and to make their results more visible. Users can build different private/public bibliographies which can be then used to compile LaTeX documents. BibAdmin is made available under the GNU GPL license on INRIA's GForge server at: http://gforge.inria.fr/projects/bibadmin/
