Scope

DaWaK conference is a high-quality forum for researchers, practitioners and developers in the field of Big Data Analytics, in a broad sense. The objective is to explore, disseminate and exchange knowledge in this field through scientific and industry talks. The conference covers all aspects of DAWAK research and practice, including data lakes, database design (data warehouse design, ER modelling), big data management (tables + text + files), query languages (SQL and beyond), parallel systems technology (Spark, MapReduce, HDFS), theoretical foundations and applications, text and data mining techniques, and deep learning. 

Topics of Interest

The conference will bring together active researchers from the database systems, cloud computing, programming languages and data science communities worldwide. Main topics include:

  • Theoretical models for extended data warehouses and big data
  • Conceptual model foundations for big data
  • Modelling diverse big data sources
  • Parallel processing
  • Parallel DBMS technology
  • Distributed system architectures
  • Scalability and parallelization using Map-Reduce, Spark, and related system
  • Query languages

Submission Guidelines

Authors are invited to submit original research contributions or experience reports in English. DaWak will accept submissions of both short and full papers.

  • Short papers: up to 6 pages on preliminary work, vision papers or industrial applications
  • Full papers: up to 15 pages (including references and appendixes). Full papers are expected to be more mature, contain more theory or present a survey (tutorial style) of some hot or not yet explored topics.

Papers exceeding the page limit or deviating from the formatting requirement are desk rejected. Submitted papers will be carefully evaluated based on originality, significance, technical soundness, and clarity of exposition. Duplicate submissions are not allowed and will be rejected immediately without further reviewing.
Authors are expected to agree to the following terms: "I understand that the submission must not overlap substantially with any other paper that I am a co-author of or that is currently submitted elsewhere. Furthermore, previously published papers with any overlap are cited prominently in this submission."
Questions about this policy or how it applies to a specific paper should be directed to the PC chairs

Submission Procedure

Papers submission will be managed using HotCRP papers submission system.  Authors should consult Springer’s authors’ instructions and use the proceedings templates, either for LaTeX or for Word, for the preparation of their papers. Please refer to Paper Submission procedure page.

Accepted papers

Authors of all accepted papers must sign a Springer copyright release form. Papers are accepted with the understanding that at least one author will register for the conference to present the paper. Selected high-quality papers, after revision and extension, will be invited to be published, in a special issue of Data & Knowledge Engineering (DKE), Elsevier (IF=2.7).
