[Balaji, Pavan]

IEEE International Conference on Data Science and Systems (DSS 2019)
http://csee.hnu.edu.cn/dss2019/

Paper Submission Deadline: April 15th, 2019
Authors Notification: May 15th, 2019
Camera-Ready Paper Due: June 10th, 2019
Conference: August 10-12, 2019

IEEE DSS (Data Science and Systems) was created 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.  2019 is the 5th event following the success in 2015 (DSDIS 2015), 2016 (DSS 2016), 2017 (DSS 2017) and 2018 (DSS 2018).

DSS-2019 will be hosted in Zhangjiajie. It is the first national forest park in China and one of the most important tourist cities in China. It is located in the northwest of Hunan province, about 400 kilometers away from Changsha, the capital of Hunan province, covering a total area of 9,563 square kilometers, of which 76% are mountainous area. Zhangjiajie was listed into the World Natural Heritage Catalogue by the UNESCO in 1992. Zhangjiajie was awarded the title of "World Geological Park" in 2004.
