DISA

The 3rd Big Data Conference at Linnaeus University Växjö, December 1st, 2017

Submission deadline: Nov 13, 2017

Welcome to our 3rd annual Big Data Conference at Linnaeus University hosted by the Linnaeus University Centre for Data Intensive Sciences and Applications (DISA). Detailed information on the conference can be found on the following web page:

For the special session on initial research findings of the LNUC DISA, we invite submissions from DISA researchers to present their academically outstanding, previously published work at the Big Data Conference 2017.

Acceptance requirements:
(i) The underlying paper has been published in an excellent journal or conference proceedings not longer than two years before the conference.
(ii) The topic of the work is clearly related to data-intensive sciences and applications.
(iii) At least one of the authors is a DISA researcher.
(iv) At least one of the authors registers for the conference and attends the conference to give a presentation about the paper.

Note, that the paper will not be part of any proceedings or similar. As the planned special session has only a restricted number of four slots only, we have to select according to a number of criteria, such as scientific quality, fitting into the DISA research aims, topical diversity (for example, not all talks on visualization or computational social sciences), etc. Therefore, we ask the submitters to carefully choose those papers and submit only one or maximal two papers of their very best work.

Information on these papers should be submitted via email to Diana Unander Nordle (diana.unandernordle@lnu.se) containing: list of authors (DISA researcher(s) should be marked), title, abstract and venue/journal where the papers originally appeared together with a link where the paper can be downloaded. The deadline is November 13, 2017. We expect to notify about the acceptance at Nov 17, 2017.

In case of questions, please contact Andreas Kerren (andreas.kerren@lnu.se) who will be chairing this session.
