The Young Researchers’ Symposium at CODS-COMAD 2022 invites submissions from students and postdoctoral fellows. This is a unique opportunity for young researchers to have fruitful peer-to-peer discussions and to get feedback from leading senior researchers about their current research work.
Submissions to the Young Researchers’ Symposium (YRS) are in the form of a 2-page extended abstract, and are invited on the topics such as data systems, data science, data management and platforms, data-driven applications etc.
We welcome many kinds of papers, such as, but not limited to: novel research papers, work-in-progress papers, appraisal papers of existing methods and tools (e.g., lessons learned).
We also welcome submissions related to the use of analytics and data systems to manage and learn from the COVID-19 epidemic, including but not limited to epidemic modeling, healthcare, disease detection, resilient logistics, etc.
The first author of any submission should be an undergraduate/postgraduate/Ph.D. student or a Postdoctoral researcher affiliated with any academic institution.
Authors of accepted papers will get a chance to present their work both as a poster and a quick lightning talk at the conference. The extended abstract will appear in the proceedings of the conference, which will be published in ACM Digital Library.
