Call for Papers

2ND INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON PROCESS MINING (ICPM 2020)
October 5-8, 2020, Padua, Italy
https://icpmconference.org/2020/

The ICPM 2020 Demo Track is intended to showcase innovative Process Mining (PM) tools and applications that may originate either from research initiatives or from industry. The Demonstration Track will provide an opportunity to present and discuss emerging technologies with researchers and practitioners in the PM field.

To be included in the demonstration tracks, tools will be evaluated on the basis of relevance to the PM community as well as on novelty and innovativeness. Previously demonstrated tools are also welcome if there is clear evidence of the value added to the previous version of the tool, such as new tool features and/or its adaptation and use for new practical applications. The tools will also be evaluated on their maturity, complexity and robustness, such as the list of features, supported use cases, number and types of users. In order for reviewers to assess the maturity and robustness, the tools need to be available for testing. If the tool requires a license, this needs to be provided to the reviewers, at least limited to the reviewing period. The procedure to obtain the license must not disclose the identity of the reviewers. The tool submission needs to be accompanied by a demo paper discussing the relevance, novelty, innovativeness and maturity of the tool. Demo papers must be no longer than 4 pages in PDF format and must adhere to the IEEE Computational Intelligence Society conference proceedings guidelines (http://ctan.cs.uu.nl/macros/latex/contrib/IEEEtran/), 8.5″ × 11″ two-column format (see http://ctan.cs.uu.nl/macros/latex/contrib/IEEEtran/IEEEtran_HOWTO.pdf).

The paper should include at least the following parts:

1. Title, authors and affiliations
2. An abstract
3. An introduction section, which, among others, should highlight the significance of the tool to the PM field;
4. A section discussing the innovations of the tool to the PM community and its main features;
5. A section describing the maturity of the tool. For this section, one could provide a brief description of case studies performed using the tool, provide scalability data or pointers indicating where readers can find more information about these case studies;
6. A link to a video that screencasts and demonstrates the tool, preferably including voice, which must not be longer than 4 minutes;
7. A link to a Web page where to download or use the tool. If the tool requires a license, a paper’s appendix should describe how to obtain a (temporary) license. The procedure to obtain the license must not disclose the identity of the reviewers. The appendix will not be included in the final version for the proceedings, if the demo is accepted.
8. A link to a separate tutorial document that focuses on one specific use case of the tool which is presented in a step-by-step approach (e.g., mine a Petri net from an event log, simulate a model, verify a set of business constraints, etc.). This separate document must be no longer than 15 pages in PDF format.

SUBMISSION AND REVIEW PROCESS

The tool submission needs to be accompanied by a demo paper discussing the relevance, novelty, innovativeness and maturity of the tool. Demo papers must be no longer than 4 pages in PDF format and must adhere to the IEEE Computational Intelligence Society conference proceedings using the 8.5″ × 11″ two-column format. Templates are available for Latex and Word https://www.ieee.org/conferences/publishing/templates.html. Accepted demo papers will be published as CEUR proceedings. Demo papers should be submitted through the ICPM 2020 submission system hosted by EasyChair at https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=icpm2020. The submission system is shared with the main conference. Once logged in, authors should select the “Demo Track” as option to submit. All demo submissions will be reviewed by the demo reviewing committee. The reviewing committee will also vote on the best demo to be granted the ICPM 2020 Best Demo Award. At least one author of each accepted demo paper is expected to register for the conference and present the tool.

INFORMATION ABOUT COVID-19 FROM ICPM 2020

"Due to the exceptional circumstances of the COVID-19 outbreak, ICPM 2020 will be a fully virtual conference, with no travel involved. However, the entire program, including the co-located events, will be retained, and will not change. With the spirit of keeping the entire conference as interactive as possible, presentations will be given live using webinars. The presentations will also be broadcasted, and also available after the conference for off-line viewing. Attendees will be able to ask questions, which will be answered at the end of each presentation. When multiple sessions run in parallel (e.g., workshops), the conference will feature parallel virtual rooms."
