Abstract

The British National Conference on Databases (bncod), now in its 27 th edition, has covered a broad range of database research topics: from the purely theoretical, to more application-oriented subjects. It has proved to be a forum for intellectual debate, and has fostered a sense of community amongst British and overseas database researchers. Databases have been incredibly successful with most businesses relying on them. However, there are still plenty of challenges that remain to be solved. This paper reflects back on the successes of the bncod series, and identifies the challenges that remain, thus showing the continuing importance of the bncod conference series.
