The IFIP International Symposium on Data-Driven Process Discovery and Analysis offers to researchers and practitioners working in business process data modeling, representation and analysis a unique opportunity to present new approaches and research results.
The Symposium will bring together leading researchers, engineers and scientists in the domain of interest from around the world. Full papers must not exceed 10 pages. Short papers are limited to at most 4 pages. All papers must be original contributions, not previously published or under review for publication elsewhere. All contributions must be written in English.
Accepted papers will be published in a pre-proceeding volume with ISBN. Authors of accepted papers will be invited to submit extended articles to a post-symposium volume IFIP Advances in Information and Communication Technology Series (http://www.springer.com/series/6102), scheduled for late 2011 (extended papers length is between 7000 and 9000 words). Around 10-15 papers will be selected for the publication after a second round of review.
