*************************************************************
* IWSG 2020 (12th International Workshop on Science Gateways)
* 10-12 June 2020
* Cardiff, Wales

**************************************************************

The triumvirate of technologies – Internet of Things (IoT), Artificial
Intelligence (AI) and the hybridlate Cloud (Cloud, Fog, Edge),
complemented with modern software engineering practices, stimulates
the emergence of new approaches to Science Gateways. Blockchain and
Smart Contracts could also be instrumental in this respect as they may
facilitate decentralised, standards and market driven aggregation of
data and computing resources, which are needed for scientific work.
These technologies may also be useful for the development of new
Virtual Research Environments and Virtual Labs.

We invite the submission of papers related to Science Gateways. Topics
include, but are not limited to:

* Architectures, frameworks and technologies for science gateways
* Science gateways sustaining productive collaborative communities
* Support for scalability and data-driven methods in science gateways
* Improving the reproducibility of science in science gateways
* Science gateway usability, portals, workflows and tools
* Software engineering approaches for scientific work
* Aspects of science gateways, such as security and stability

We in particular encourage the submissions from application scientists
and community members, reporting their experiences with science
gateways. There are three forms of presentation:

* Talks
* Lightning talks
* Demonstrations

Submission of a full paper may result in a talk, submission of an
abstract may result in a lightning talk or a demonstration. Presenters
of full papers will be given a 20-minute time slot (plus 5 minutes for
questions) to provide a summary and update to their work. Presenters
of abstracts will be given a 10-minute time slot (including 3 minutes
for questions).

All contributions will be subject to standard peer review on quality,
relevance and novelty, which will decide acceptance and form of
presentation. All submissions will be held in confidentiality prior to
publication in the proceedings. Full papers must not exceed six A4
pages and must be written in clear and readable English. Abstracts
must not exceed 500 words and may include a diagram. They should also
be written in clear, readable English. Authors of abstracts should put
the word “Abstract:” in the title.
