The International Workshop on RFID Data Management (RFDM'08) aims to bring together researchers and practitioners that work on problems related to managing data produced by Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) or other traceability and automated identification (Auto ID) technologies. The workshop will be held in conjunction with ICDE 2008 in Cancun, Mexico.

   The workshop will serve as a forum for researchers and practitioners to discuss the state-of-the-art, present their contributions, and set future directions in the area of Auto ID data management.

   Our goal is to fill an important gap in the community by bringing interested researchers together to identify future research challenges and opportunities. The workshop will be organized in a way to foster interaction and exchange of ideas among the participants. We expect to have longer than usual question-and-answer periods after paper presentations and at least one panel discussion.
