Call for Papers:
DEBS 2019:  ACM International Conference on Distributed and Event-based 
Systems
Darmstadt, Germany (June 24-28)

http://www.debs2019.org

Over the past decade, the ACM International Conference on Distributed 
and Event-based Systems (DEBS) has become the premier venue for academia 
and industry to discuss cutting-edge research of event-based computing 
related to Big Data, AI/ML, IoT and Distributed Systems. The objectives 
of the ACM International Conference on Distributed and Event-Based 
Systems (DEBS) are to provide a forum dedicated to the dissemination of 
original research, the discussion of practical insights, and the 
reporting of experiences relevant to distributed systems and event-based 
computing. The conference aims at providing a forum for academia and 
industry to exchange ideas.

Scope
=====
The DEBS conference covers topics in distributed and event-based 
computing. The scope of the conference includes systems dealing with 
collecting, detecting, processing and responding to events through 
distributed middleware and applications. Examples of application domains 
covered by the conference include the Internet of Things, sensor 
networks, social networking, finance, healthcare and logistics, computer 
and network security. Technologies discussed include real-time 
analytics, complex-event detection, reliability and resilience, energy 
management and green computing, data stream processing, big/fast data 
analysis, event processing for AI/ML, AI/ML for event processing, 
security and encryption in stream processing, embedded systems, and 
cloud, peer-to-peer, ubiquitous and mobile computing. Topics relevant to 
enterprise-level computing include enterprise application integration, 
real-time enterprises, Web services and support for enterprises to 
respond in timely fashion to changing situations.

Topics covered include, but are not limited to:
Models, architectures and paradigms: Event-driven architectures, 
real-time analytics, complex event processing, event processing for 
AI/ML, event processing in big and fast data, data stream processing, 
security and encryption in stream processing, rule-based systems, 
in-network processing, logic-based event recognition, event correlation 
and pattern languages.
Systems and software: Distributed data processing, distributed 
programming, federated event-based systems, AI/ML for event processing, 
information-centric networking, software-defined networking, security, 
reliability and resilience, programmable hardware, energy management and 
green computing as well as cloud, fog, ubiquitous and mobile computing.
Applications: Use cases, requirements and applications of distributed 
and event-based systems in various domains including Internet-of-Things, 
cyber-physical systems, sensor networks, social networking, multimedia 
analytics, finance, healthcare and logistics, computer and network 
security, smart contracts and blockchains. Also, relevant topics span 
enterprise-level computing, including enterprise application 
integration, real-time enterprises, event-based business process 
management, and support for enterprises to respond in timely fashion to 
changing situations.

Submissions
===========
All submissions must be original and unpublished. Accepted papers will 
be published by ACM and disseminated through the ACM Digital Library.

Authors Take Note: A new policy by ACM will allow DEBS 2019 to make the 
proceedings available ahead of the conference via the ACM Digital 
Library. Thus, the official publication date is the date the proceedings 
appear in the ACM Digital Library. This date may be up to two weeks 
prior to the first day of the conference. The official publication date 
affects the deadline for any patent filings related to published work.

The conference adopts a double-blind review process for the research 
track, where neither authors nor reviewers know each other’s identities. 
This means that papers must not list or otherwise identify the authors. 
References to previous work should be done in the third person as to not 
reveal the identities of the authors. Research track submissions that 
are not anonymous may be rejected without review.

Research Track papers must be no longer than 12 pages. The authors of 
accepted papers will be given a choice between different copyright 
agreements, in accordance with the recent changes in the ACM policy. The 
options will include new opportunities for open access as well as the 
traditional ACM copyright agreement. Further information about the 
submissions can be found on the web page with submission information. 
Submissions to the research track will be evaluated by a Research 
Program Committee, listed here: 
http://www.debs2019.org/committees/Program_Committee.html
