Workshop overview
Data science is an interdisciplinary field about scientific processes, methodologies, and systems to extract useful knowledge or insights from data in various forms. Data can be analyzed using data mining, machine learning, data analysis and statistics, optimizing processes and maximizing the knowledge exploitation in real-life settings.
DaS 2017 is a workshop aimed at fostering and sharing research and innovation on data science. The workshop will allow researchers and practitioners to exchange their ideas and experiences on designing and developing data science applications, to discuss the main open issues and to share novel solutions for data management and analytics.
Researchers are encouraged to submit their papers describing systems, platforms, algorithms, methodologies and applications addressing all facets of a data-driven technological solution. Industrial implementations of data science applications, design and deployment experience reports on various issues raising in data science projects are particularly welcome. We call for research and experience papers as well as demonstration proposals covering any aspect of a data science application (e.g., smart cities, e-commerce, social networks, bio-sciences and healthcare, business analytics and finance, Internet of Things).
Topics of interest for this workshop include but are not limited to the following:
In one of – though not limited to – the following application scenarios:
Submissions should present original results and substantial new work not currently under review or published elsewhere. This workshop accepts:
Research papers (up to 10 pages) including novel approaches for data science methodologies and algorithms.
Papers must comply with the Springer formatting guidelines (instructions for authors are available at http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-12-73062-0). Papers should be formattex in LATEX and submitted in PDF format using the online submission system https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=das2017
Workshop papers will be published by Springer-Verlag in the Communications in Computer and Information Science (CCIS) series.
The authors of the best workshop papers will be invited to prepare extended versions of their papers after the workshop. Following an additional round of reviews, the extended papers will appear in a special issue of Information System frontiers, Springer (Impact Factor = 0.761).
