The 11h IEEE International Conference on Data Science and Systems (DSS-2025)
https://hpcn.exeter.ac.uk/dss2025/

Exeter, UK, 13-15 August 2025
INTRODUCTION
=============
As an interdisciplinary area, Data Science draws scientific inquiry from a broad range of subject areas such as statistics, mathematics, computer science, machine learning, optimization, signal processing, information retrieval, databases, cloud computing, computer vision, natural language processing and etc. Data Science is on the essence of deriving valuable insights from data. It is emerging to meet the challenges of processing very large datasets, i.e. Big Data, with the explosion of new data continuously generated from various channels such as smart devices, web, mobile and social media.
Data systems are posing many challenges in exploiting parallelism of current and upcoming computer architectures. The importance of data intensive systems has been raised and will continue to be the foremost fields of research. The DSS-2025 is going to provide a prime international forum for researchers, industry practitioners and domain experts to exchange the latest advances in Data Science and Data Systems as well as their synergy.
DSS-2025 will be hosted in Exeter, the capital city of Devon and provides the county with a central base for education, medicine, religion, commerce and culture. Prospective authors are invited to submit their papers to DSS-2025. All accepted papers are expected to be included in IEEE Xplore and will be indexed by Engineering Index (EI). The authors of selected best papers will be invited post conference to extend their contributions for special issues of prestigious journals to be planned in conjunction with the conference.

PAPER SUBMISSION GUIDELINE
==========================
All papers need to be submitted electronically through the conference submission website (https://hpcn.exeter.ac.uk/dss/) with PDF format. The materials presented in the papers should not be published or under submission elsewhere. Each paper is limited to 8 pages (or 12 pages with over length charge) including figures and references using IEEE Computer Society Proceedings Manuscripts style (two columns, single-spaced, 10 fonts).
Once accepted, the paper will be included into the IEEE conference proceedings published by IEEE Computer Society Press (indexed by EI). At least one of the authors of any accepted paper is requested to register the paper at the conference.


CALL FOR WORKSHOP PROPOSALS
==============================
DSS-2025 is inviting proposals for high-quality workshops to complement its scientific program. Workshop topics should fall within the broad area of Data Science and Systems. The workshop organizers are highly encouraged to include interactive and hands-on working sessions.
The organizers of approved workshops are responsible for advertising their workshops, collecting papers, managing the review process, making accepted papers available to workshop participants (e.g., workshop website). Conference facilities such as meeting rooms, wireless Internet and meals will be provided by the main conference local organizers.

WORKSHOP PROPOSAL SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS
============================================
Workshop proposals should be formatted as a single PDF document of 1-2 pages, describing the following:
• The full name and acronym of the workshop
• A description of the theme of the workshop and its key topics
• A tentative list of workshop chairs
• A tentative CFP

To Submit: Please email your proposal to dss2025@googlegroups.com with the title “DSS Workshop Proposal”.
