OVERVIEW

eScience studies, enacts, and improves the ongoing process of innovation in 
computationally-intensive or data-intensive research methods; typically this is 
carried out collaboratively, often using distributed computing infrastructure. 
eScience encompasses all fields of research and addresses all stages of the 
research lifecycle, from formulation of the research questions, through large 
scale simulations and data analytics, scientific discovery, up to long-term 
sharing, publication, reusing, and reapplying of the results, data as well as 
the relevant tools, processes and knowledge.

eScience’25 welcomes paper submissions for its technical program. The 
conference will be an interdisciplinary forum for researchers, developers, and 
users of applications and enabling IT technologies. The conference welcomes 
conceptualization, implementation, and experience contributions enabling and 
driving innovation in data- and compute-intensive research. eScience covers 
all disciplines, from the physical and biological sciences to the social 
sciences, arts, and humanities. Infrastructure and technologies can include a 
broad spectrum, such as HPC, cloud, IoT, as well as artificial intelligence and 
machine learning methods.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CONFERENCE SCOPE

Submissions may include all aspects of eScience and its associated 
technologies, applications, algorithms, and tools, with a strong focus on 
practical solutions and open challenges. Ideal papers involve the interplay 
between applications and infrastructure technologies, with a focus on novelty 
in one or both.

Topics of interest related to eScience also include, but are not limited to:
* Artificial intelligence, machine learning, data science, generative AI, large 
 language models applied/applicable in science
* Research computing cyberinfrastructure (e.g., cloud, cluster, HPC, 
 supercomputer)
* Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable (FAIR) principles for scientific 
 software, data, workflows, models
* Reproducible and replicable eScience
* Translational research in computer and computational sciences
* Continuum computing: convergence between cloud computing, edge computing, 
 and/or the Internet of Things (IoT)
* Education and e-Science
* Collaborative, reproducible and replicable eScience
* Science gateways, data portals, and digital repositories
* Resource management and scheduling
* Programming paradigms and models
* Real-time (time-sensitive) computing (e.g., for scientific instruments)
* Automation and event-based computing
* Big data stacks and big data ecosystems
* File and storage systems, I/O, and data management
* Scientific applications, algorithms, tools, and technologies
* Scientific workflows and distributed computing paradigms (e.g., FaaS)
* Blockchain technologies in science
* Fault tolerance, resilience, and security

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS

The conference is now soliciting full papers (8 pages excluding references) 
that present previously unpublished research achievements or eScience 
experiences and solutions. Full papers PDF format should be submitted online at 
https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://easychair.org/conferences?conf=escience25__;!!G_uCfscf7eWS!e_zNhRBV0xRG-2eXgM0O5VMdyiKRFnS9KKjldIy2RUgVERc0kiWxsZYm3D6SMmKkz-aBCPic_yWwOn4ijm19PQ$  
prior to Monday, May 5th, 2025. Templates are available from 
https://urldefense.us/v3/__http://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html__;!!G_uCfscf7eWS!e_zNhRBV0xRG-2eXgM0O5VMdyiKRFnS9KKjldIy2RUgVERc0kiWxsZYm3D6SMmKkz-aBCPic_yWwOn5JX48gwg$ .
Submitted papers should use the IEEE 8.5×11 manuscript guidelines: 
double-column text using single-spaced 10-point font on 8.5×11-inch pages. 
All submissions will be single-blind peer reviewed. Selected full papers will 
receive a slot for an oral presentation. Accepted posters will be presented 
during a poster reception. Accepted full papers will be published in the IEEE 
conference proceedings. Rejected full papers can be re-submitted for a poster 
or workshop presentation.

Submitted papers may also be posted on preprint servers (e.g. arXiv).

At least one author of each accepted paper must register as an author at the 
full registration rate. Each author registration can be applied to only one 
accepted submission. Note. The use of artificial intelligence (AI)-generated 
content shall be disclosed in the acknowledgements section of the paper. The 
AI system used shall be identified, and specific sections of the paper that use 
AI-generated content shall be identified and accompanied by a brief explanation 
regarding the level at which the AI system was used to generate the content. 
Authors are fully responsible for all content they submit. For more information 
please click please click here.
