    The DB and IR communities are both very successful, but have evolved largely independently of each other. While the DB community has mostly focused on developing various techniques for efficiently processing queries over structured data, the IR community has mainly focused on finding ranking techniques for queries on text and evaluating their result effectiveness. The question we ask in this panel is whether we should rethink data management system architecture ground-up to truly merge DB and IR technologies. This question gains special relevance in the face of new and emerging applications such as content management and XML data management, which have an abundant mix of structured and unstructured data.
