This volume presents the proceedings of the Fourth
International Conference on Data Organization and
Algorithms, FODO '93, held in Evanston, Illinois.
FODO '93 reflects the maturing of the database field which
hasbeen driven by the enormous growth in the range of
applications for databasesystems. The "non-standard"
applications of the not-so-distant past, such ashypertext,
multimedia, and scientific and engineering databases, now
provide some of the central motivation for the advances in
hardware technology and data organizations and algorithms.
The volume contains 3 invited talks, 22 contributed
papers, and 2 panel papers. The contributed papers are
grouped into parts on multimedia, access methods,
text processing, query processing, industrial applications,
physical storage, andnew directions.
