Objective
=========

The ACM International Conference on Distributed and Event-Based Systems (DEBS)
is the premier venue for academia and industry to discuss cutting-edge research
in distributed and event-based computing and data processing. DEBS 2025 will
provide a forum for original research, practical insights, and experiences in
distributed and event-based systems, with a focus on emerging trends and new
challenges in the field.

Scope
=====

The DEBS conference aims to present novel solutions for collecting, detecting,
processing, analyzing, and responding to events through distributed middleware,
systems, and platforms. DEBS 2025 welcomes submissions focusing on 1) Models,
Architectures, Programming, and Query Support, 2) Systems and Software, and 3)
Applications and Use-Cases on the following topics:

- Scalable data stream processing and complex event processing.
- Dataflow execution and distributed state management.
- Time series event-based database management.
- Approximate event-based query processing.
- Incremental computing, data structures, and materialized view maintenance for
  relational, graph, and stream data.
- Security, encryption, forecasting, and in-network processing for data streams.
- Event-based systems for ML: optimizing end-to-end AI/ML pipelines using
  event-based systems, i.e., feature engineering, distributed training, and
  serving.
- ML for event-based systems: improving performance using AI/ML methods.
- Cloud, fog, and edge computing, including serverless and FaaS.
- Hardware acceleration and programmable hardware for event-based systems. 
- Software-defined networking and disaggregated memory architectures for
  event-based systems.
- Sustainability, security, reliability, and resilience in event-based systems.
- Scalable distributed ledger and blockchain.
- Applications and use-cases regarding Internet-of-Things (IoT), smart cities,
  virtual and extended/augmented reality, cyber-physical systems, and sensor
  networks.
- Applications and use-cases regarding enterprise, finance, healthcare, life
  sciences, logistics, multimedia analytics, computer/network security, and
  social networking.

Submission Categories
=====================

The DEBS 2025 Research Track welcomes papers in the following categories:
* Regular papers: this category is open to research papers of both theoretical
  and experimental nature with novel and original research contributions.
  Regular papers must be no longer than 12 pages, including references.  
* Short papers: this category offers the opportunity to present and discuss new 
  ideas and/or visions on emerging research challenges. 
  Preliminary results from original research may also be presented, where some 
  aspects of the work remain open, possibly with initial or limited evaluation. 
  Short papers must be no longer than 6 pages, including references.

Submission Guidelines
=====================

Submissions should be formatted in the ACM proceedings style and submitted as
PDF file via Microsoft CMT at https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://cmt3.research.microsoft.com/DEBS2025__;!!G_uCfscf7eWS!fKu4aQsINq3d8CtK9Sp_-e-8VR_JUOiLnQA2hMfrJlbbR6iw6xw56QVkpQLf2bYtnImtPdUXtQ5bMFFje3miR1CcCU1i1F47JQ$  
A submitted paper cannot be under review for any other conference or journal
during the time it is considered for DEBS 2025, and it must be substantially
different from any previously published work. 
The Research Track adopts a double-blind review process for both categories of 
papers, where neither authors nor reviewers know each other's identities. 

The conference proceedings are published in ACM Digital Library.

Journal Special Issue
=====================

Authors of selected, top-rated papers from DEBS 2025 will be invited to submit
an extended version of their work to the special issue for Elsevier's
Information Systems on "Advances in Distributed Data Processing and Event-Based
Systems".
