This volume contains expanded and updated versions of papers presented at CIKM 92, the First International Conference on Information and Knowledge Management, held in Baltimore, Maryland, in November 1992. The conference participants came from the fields of database management, information retrieval, and artificial intelligence. A major theme in the volume is how these fields are merging and enriching each other. Theeight papers discuss: discovering context in a conceptual schema; a system for face information retrieval; queries in OODB systems; consistency checking in OODBs; integrity constraints representation in OODBs; a framework for temporal object databases; inductive dependencies and approximate databases; OODB design methodologies.
