NEW!! Encore Track

To highlight recent and relevant research in graph analytics, LSGDA 2025 introduces the Encore Track to facilitate knowledge dissemination and collaboration. Researchers may submit an abstract, title, and author information of recently published work at prestigious venues for an encore presentation at LSGDA.

Eligible submissions must have been published, in press, or accepted for publication since January 1, 2024 in well-regarded conferences (e.g., SIGMOD, VLDB, ICDE, EDBT, KDD, CIKM) or journals (e.g., IEEE TKDE, VLDB Journal, ACM TODS). Authors of accepted Encore Track submissions will be invited to present their work as lightning talks at the workshop.

Encore Track Submission & Review Process

The acceptance decision will be based on both quality and relevance to LSGDA.

  • Submissions will be reviewed on a rolling basis.
  • Authors must submit a PDF copy of the published paper and the official URL to the publisher's version.
  • If the paper has been accepted but is not yet published, authors must also provide evidence of acceptance (e.g., acceptance notification email in PDF format).

Important Dates (Encore Track)

  • Submission Deadline: July 30, 2025 (AoE time)
  • Notification: Within 14 working days of submission
