I think, it will last more than five years. It hasn't touched yet the 
field of multimedia databases (MDBMS). KDD could be efficient in 
content
sensitive retrieval.
If you want to combine CSP and KDD - look in data with bounded errors.
This data is represented in the form of intervals (you can say 
"constraints"
on the value). Thus: discovering patterns in interval data is a good 
topic
for a Dr. Degree.
