Thus the title of the proceedings: "New Frontiers in Application of Data Mining." For the 2008 program, three workshops were organized. 1. Algorithms for Large-Scale Information Processing (ALSIP). The focus of the workshop was novel algorithms and data structures to deal with p- cessing of very large data sets. 2. Data Mining for Decision Making and Risk Management (DMDRM), which emphasized applications of risk information derived from data mining te- niques on diverse applications ranging from medicine to marketing to chemistry. 3. Interactive Data Mining (IDM), which emphasized the relationship between techniques in data mining and human-computer interaction. In total 38 papers were submitted to the workshops. After consultation with theworkshopChairswhowereaskedto ranktheir submissions,18wereaccepted for publicationin this volume.We hope that the published papers propelfurther interest in the growing ?eld of knowledge discovery in databases (KDD). The paper selection of the industrial track and the workshops was made by the Program Committee of each organization. Upon the paper selection, the book was edited and managed by the volume editors.
