The 'adass' database consists of three tables:
- invited - table representing invited speakers;
- participant - table representing conference participants;
- program - table representing all contributions (Oral, Poster, etc.).
The tables map logically to the way the information was presented at past Conference host sites. Relationships between the three tables can be created using common keys, however there are no dependencies between them. The source of the data came from online public materials such as detailed programs and participant lists, from past host sites. The amount of information and the way it was presented varies from site to site and year to year. Thus, these variations are reflected in the database. For most Conference years, no massaging of data was done, with the exception for years where 'paper id' was not provided, one was created using the format adopted by ADASS IX.
Questions, comments and corrections should be directed to the existing database administrator located at the bottom of this page. Other ADASS community members who can make 'edits' to the database include:
