Call for papers

Our workshop is a dedicated forum to encourage the exploration of how synthetic datasets can be integrated across diverse information system engineering (ISE) contexts, which is a developing field and a promising application area for AI, where many approaches are not mature enough yet for publication at the main track and are more exploratory. Areas of Interest include, but are not limited to:

• Synthetic data for AI and Machine Learning in ISE: Generating high-quality synthetic data to support machine learning applications within ISE, including deep learning, natural language processing, and generative AI models;
• Method, techniques, and algorithms to generate synthetic data for IS, spanning from AI/ML generative models to traditional frameworks, e.g., model-based tools;
• Synthetic data generation to support data management systems, e.g., DBMS and knowledge graphs;
• Process Automation and Mining with Synthetic Data: Utilizing synthetic datasets to improve data-driven applications, process mining, and business process modeling and simulation;
• Synthetic datasets for real-time application: Creating synthetic datasets to conceive digital twins, simulate real-time data streams in IoT systems, and data for advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS);
• Data-driven compliance and governance: Addressing regulatory and privacy concerns through synthetic data generation to support decision-making and compliance in sensitive systems, e.g., eGovernment and healthcare;
• Evaluation of Synthetic Data in Real-world Contexts: Developing benchmarks and methodologies to validate the quality, diversity, sustainability, and realism of synthetic datasets in business intelligence and industry-specific systems;
• Case studies and experience reports from academia and industry

Submission process

Submissions to the presentation-oriented workshop must conform to the Springer LNCS/LNBIP format and the page limits includes references, figures, tables, and appendixes. Following the Springer guidelines, we accept the following types of submissions:

• Full papers up to 12 pages, to present mature works with a rigorous evaluation
• Short papers from 6 up to 8 pages, to present early-stage works with a ligh-weight evaluation or proof-of-concept

Papers should be submitted as PDF, following Springer’s LNCS format. Submissions not conforming to the LNCS format, the page limitations, or being obviously out of the scope of the workshop, will be rejected without review. For Springer’s LNCS format, see the guidelines provided at Springer’s site. The submission system will be available at EasyChair.

The results described in the submitted paper must be unpublished and must not be under review elsewhere. Three to five keywords characterizing the paper should be listed at the end of the abstract. The selected papers will be discussed on with the paper reviewers as well as during the program board meeting. As the review process is not blind, please indicate your name and affiliation when you submit. According to the Springer standards, the overall acceptance rate cannot exceed 45%-50%.
