[TYPES/announce] TaPP 2017 - Call for Papers

[James Cheney]

9th International Workshop on Theory and Practice of Provenance
Call for Papers

TaPP 2017 continues the tradition of providing a genuine workshop
environment for discussing and developing new ideas and exploring
connections between disciplines and between academic research on provenance
and practical applications. TaPP will take place June 22-23, 2017 in
Seattle, WA, USA on the University of Washington campus.

We invite innovative and creative contributions, including papers outlining
new challenges for provenance research, promising formal approaches to
provenance, innovative use of provenance, experience-based insights,
resourceful experiments, and visionary (and possibly risky) ideas.
Proposals for tutorials, panel or group discussions, reports on early stage
research, or any other activities that will create a successful workshop
are encouraged.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

  •  Provenance management system prototypes and commercial solutions
  •  Provenance analytics, querying, and reasoning about provenance
  •  Visualizing provenance information
  •  Performance aspects of provenance capture, storage, and analytics
  •  Standardization of provenance models and representations
  •  Security and privacy implications of provenance
  •  Applications of provenance in real life settings
  •  Human interaction with provenance
  •  Retroactive reconstruction of provenance
  •  Using provenance for evaluating data quality and trust in data
  •  Novel methods for capturing provenance
  •  Integrating provenance information
  •  Interoperability among provenance-aware systems
  •  Provenance discovery

Important Dates:

  Abstract Registration Due: March 13, 2017
  Paper submission deadline: March 20, 2017
  Acceptance Notification: May 1, 2017
  Camera-ready deadline: TBD
  (All deadlines are 23:59:59 UTC-11)

Submission Instructions:

  •    Formatted according to the ACM SIGPLAN two-column format (
http://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Author/ )
  •    Typically 4 pages, and no longer than 8 pages. An extra 4 pages of
supporting material may be submitted, but the reviewers will not be obliged
to read them
  •    "Short papers" of 4 pages or less need not make an original research
contribution and will be evaluated on the basis of originality, relevance,
and contribution to the workshop
  •    Proposals for tutorials, demos, discussions or other activities
should be submitted as short papers

As in previous years, contributions to TaPP will be published online as
open access; authors retain copyright to their submissions and full-length
papers based on TaPP contributions may be submitted to other venues.

Further instructions, including a link to the submission site, will be
available shortly at
