The Distributed Data-Mining Workshop

The workshop focused on the state-of-the-art DDM algorithms, systems, and application-related issues. Approximately 40 participants attended the workshop. The workshop had 13 presentations, including 3 invited talks. The workshop began with a visionary invited talk on the possible role of mobile agents in DDM by George Cybenko of Dartmouth University. His talk described some of the existing mobile agent-based systems and pointed out the strengths of distributed data analysis using mobile agents.
