Submission Guidelines

DAWAK 2025 follows a single-blind review policy.

• 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.

• Duplicate submissions are not allowed and will be rejected immediately without further reviewing.

• Authors are invited to submit original research contributions or experience reports in English.

Submission Procedure

• Papers submission will be managed using HotCRP: https://dawak2025.iiwas.org
• Authors should consult Springer’s authors’ instructions and use the proceedings templates, either for LaTeX or for Word, for the preparation of their papers.

Important Dates

• Paper submission: 10 April 2025 (Sharp & Final)
• Notification of acceptance: 20 May 2025
• Camera-ready copies due: 15 June 2025
• Authors Registration deadline: 15 June 2025
• Conference days: 25-27 August 2025

Publication

All accepted conference papers will be published by Springer in their Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS).

The best DAWAK papers will be invited to contribute to the Special Issue of Data & Knowledge Engineering (DKE).

Important Note on Submissions

HotCRP cannot accept the use of public email services such as Gmail, Yahoo, Outlook, etc., as it needs to verify potential conflicts between reviewers and paper authors. Please use your institution email address and if you still encounter any issues, please reach out to (dawak2025@iiwas.org).
