Paper Submission

Please submit a full-length paper (up to 10 page IEEE 2-column format) through the online submission system (for more info see SABID 2017 website). After being carefully reviewed by at least 3 PC members, all papers accepted for our workshop will be included in the IEEE Int. Conf. Big Data Workshops 2017 Proceedings published by the IEEE Computer Society Press (also included in the IEEE Digital Library), and made available at the conference. Selected papers (after their significant expansion and another round of independent reviews) will be invited to a special journal issue. Best papers from SABID‘14 were published in “Astronomy and Computing” and best works from SABID’16 are currently in press of “Astrophysical Journal Supplement”.

IMPORTANT DATES:

• Due date for workshop papers submission: October 10, 2017
• Notification of paper acceptance to authors : November 1, 2017
• Camera-ready of accepted papers:November 15, 2017
