Goals The International Conference on Emerging Databases is an annual forum for exploring technologies, novel applications, and research of emerging database fields. Using this forum, researchers and practitioners can exchange current issues, challenges, new technologies, and practical experiences. The sixth International Conference on Emerging Databases - Technologies, Applications, and Theory (EDB2016) will focus on data science, data mining, big data management and analytics, etc. which are popular areas from computer science and other related fields. The EDB2016 will be held at Jeju Island, Jeju, Korea. Authors are invited to submit original and research papers addressing technical issues, solutions, and technologies in emerging database and data science fields. All submissions will be peer-reviewed by the members of the international program committee. All accepted papers will be published in the proceedings with an assigned ISBN number and also published in the ACM Digital Library.
