submissions of research papers addressing all aspects of
discovery science: papers that focus on the analysis of
different types of massive and complex data, including
structured, spatio-temporal and network data. We would
also like to encourage contributions from the areas of
computational scientific discovery, mining scientific
data, computational creativity and discovery
informatics. We particularly welcome papers addressing
applications from different domains of science including
biomedicine and life sciences, astronomy, physics,
chemistry, as well as social sciences. Applications to
massive, heterogeneous, continuous or imprecise data
sets are of particular interests. Possible topics
include, but are not limited to:</span></font></p>
