Submission Types


We invite various types of submissions to ensure a rich and diverse program:



Oral Presentations (20 minutes): Share your research findings, innovative applications, case studies, or best practices in a focused presentation.



Technical Papers (Full Length, 8-12 pages, IEEE format): Submit original, unpublished research that will undergo a rigorous peer-review process. Accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings.



Experience & Insight Papers (4-6 pages, formatted for readability): This category is for practitioners, industry leaders, and innovators to share valuable lessons learned, practical case studies, real-world implementations, and insightful perspectives on the challenges and successes encountered in scalable data processing and data mining. These papers should focus on practical applications, best practices, and actionable insights. Submissions will be peer-reviewed for clarity, relevance, and practical value.



Poster Presentations: Visually showcase preliminary results, ongoing research, or innovative concepts. There will be a dedicated poster session for interactive discussions.



Panel Proposals (60 minutes): Suggest and moderate a discussion among 3-5 experts on a controversial, emerging, or complex topic within scalable data processing and data mining.



Workshop Proposals (60 minutes): Propose an interactive, hands-on session focused on practical skills, tools, or methodologies related to data processing, data mining, or machine learning for massive datasets.


Submission Guidelines


Abstract: All submissions (except workshop proposals) must include a concise abstract (maximum 300 words) summarizing the problem, approach, key findings/insights, and conclusions.
Author Information: Include full names, affiliations, and a brief professional biography (max 100 words per author).
Keywords: Provide 3-5 relevant keywords that best describe your submission.
Originality: Submissions must represent original work that has not been previously published or is not currently under review elsewhere.
Audience Consideration: Presenters should be prepared to convey complex technical or business concepts clearly to a diverse audience, including both technical and non-technical attendees.
Formatting: Specific formatting guidelines for full papers will be provided upon the submission portal opening.


Review Process


All submissions will undergo a rigorous peer-review process by the Program Committee, comprising leading experts in data science, distributed systems, machine learning, and related domains. Submissions will be evaluated based on:



Relevance to conference themes
Originality and novelty of contributions
