Submission
We particularly welcome papers that can be illustrated by a demonstration, and we will organize the conference in order to best accommodate these papers, whatever their category.
As usual, it is planned that a selection of accepted papers will be published in a book by Springer following the conference.
Authors are requested to submit PDF files of their manuscripts using the paper submission system.
Paper Submission Site (EasyChair)
We distinguish between the following categories of submissions:
- Long Research Papers are reserved for reports on mature research results. The expected length of a long paper should be in the range of 6-10 pages, not including references.
- Short Research Papers should not exceed 6 pages in total. Authors may choose this category if they wish to report on smaller case studies or ongoing but interesting and original research efforts.
- Demo Submissions - System Papers: Authors who wish to demonstrate their system during IWSDS'14 may choose this category and provide a description of their system, installation, or demo. System papers should not exceed 6 pages in total.

Art Guidelines
The file Art Guidelines.pdf explains the requirements for submitting figures that are acceptable. Please pay particular attention to the guidelines about colour figures.
IWSDS 2014 requires that all authors wishing to present a paper take into account:
- The paper is substantially original and will not be submitted to any other conference or journal during the IWSDS 2014 review period.
- The paper does not contain any plagiarism.
- The paper will be presented by one of the authors in-person at the conference site according to the schedule published. Any paper accepted in the technical program, but not presented on-site will be withdrawn from the official conference proceedings.
