12th International Symposium

DATAMOD 2024

FROM DATA TO MODELS AND BACK

A satellite event of the

22nd International Conference of Software Engineering and Formal Methods - SEFM 2024

DATE 4-5 November

LOCATION Aveiro, Portugal

About DataMod

DataMod aims at bringing together practitioners and researchers from academia, industry and research institutions interested in the combined application of computational modelling methods with data-driven techniques from the areas of knowledge management, data mining and machine learning.

Modelling methodologies of interest include automata, agents, Petri nets, process algebras and rewriting systems. Application domains include social systems, ecology, biology, medicine, smart cities, governance, security, education, software engineering, and any other field that deals with complex systems and large amounts of data.

Papers can present research results in any of the themes of interest for the symposium as well as application experiences, tools and promising preliminary ideas. Papers dealing with synergistic approaches that integrate modelling and knowledge management/discovery or that exploit knowledge management/discovery to develop/syntesise system models are especially welcome.

Topics of interest

Modelling and analysis methodologies include

  • Agent-based Methodologies
  • Automata-based Methodologies
  • Big Data Analytics
  • Cellular Automata
  • Classification
  • Clustering, Segmentation and Profiling
  • Conformance Analysis
  • Constraint Programming
  • Data Mining
  • Differential Equations
  • Game Theory
  • Machine Learning
  • Membrane Systems
  • Network Theory and Analysis
  • Ontologies
  • Optimisation Modelling
  • Petri Nets
  • Process Calculi
  • Process Mining
  • Rewriting Systems
  • Spatio-temporal Data Analysis/Mining
  • Statistical Model Checking
  • Text Mining
  • Topological Data Analysis

Application domains include:

  • Biology
  • Brain Data and Simulation
  • Business Process Management
  • Climate Change
  • Cybersecurity
  • Ecology
  • Education
  • Environmental Risk Assessment and Management
  • Enterprise Architectures
  • Epidemiology
  • Genetics and Genomics
  • Governance
  • HCI and Human Behaviour
  • Open Source Software Development and Communities
  • Pharmacology
  • Resilience Engineering
  • Safety and Security Risk Assessment
  • Social Good
  • Social Software Engineering
  • Social Systems
  • Sustainable Development
  • Threat modelling and analysis
  • Urban Ecology
  • Smart Cities and Smart Lands

Synergistic approaches include:

  1. Use of modelling methods and notations in a knowledge management/discovery context
  1. Development and use of common modelling and knowledge management/discovery frameworks to explore and understand complex systems from the application domains of interest

PRESENTATION REPORT

Paper Submission And Publication

FORMS

Papers can take one of the following three forms:

  • Regular (research, tool or position) paper, up to 16 pages (excluding references)
  • Short (research, tool or position) paper, up to 8 pages (excluding references)
  • Presentation report, up to 4 pages
  • Presentation reports concern recent or ongoing work on relevant topics and ideas, for timely discussion and feedback at the workshop. There is no restriction as for previous/future publication of the contents of a presentation. Typically, a presentation is based on a paper which recently appeared (or which is going to appear) in the proceedings of another recognised conference, or which has not yet been submitted. Presentation reports will receive a lightweight review to establish their relevance for DataMod (see the Call for Presentation Reports).

    SUBMISSION

    All submissions must be original, unpublished, and not submitted concurrently for publication elsewhere.

    Authors are invited to submit their contributions (regular and short paper) via Easychair

    Authors are invited to submit their presentation report via e-mail at datamod2024@easychair.org

    Papers must be formatted according to the guidelines for Springer LNCS papers, without modifications of margins and other space-saving measures. Authors should therefore consult Springer's authors' instructions and use their proceedings templates, either for LaTeX or for Word, for the preparation of their papers. Springer’s proceedings LaTeX templates are also available in Overleaf. Springer encourages authors to include their ORCIDs in their papers.

    Each paper will be reviewed by three Program Committee members. Notification and reviews will be communicated via email through the Easychair platform.

    PUBLICATION

    Accepted papers will be included in the Symposium programme and will appear in the symposium pre-proceedings. Pre-proceedings will be available online before the Symposium. Condition for inclusion in the pre-proceedings is that at least one of the co-authors has registered for the Symposium. Revised versions of accepted papers will be published after the Symposium in a LNCS volume published by Springer. Condition for inclusion in the post-proceedings is that at least one of the co-authors has presented the paper at the Symposium.
