*About ICDT*
ICDT is a series of international scientific conferences on research of
data management theory
(https://databasetheory.org/icdt-pages). Since 2009, it is annually
and jointly held with EDBT (Extending DB Technology). The 27th edition
of ICDT, in 2024, will take place in Paestum, Italy.
Topics of Interest
We welcome research papers on *every* topic related to the principles
and theory of data management, provided that there is a clear connection
to foundational aspects. This includes, for example, articles on
"classical" data management topics such as:
The design and study of data models and query languages
The development and analysis of algorithms for data management
The theoretical investigation of various aspects underlying data
management systems (indexes, concurrency, distributed computation,
privacy and security, ...)
but also includes papers exploring existing or identifying new
connections between data management and other areas, such as the areas of:
knowledge representation, semantic web
information retrieval and data mining
machine learning/AI
distributed computing
theoretical computer science.
In all of the above, a clear emphasis on foundational aspects is
expected. You may want to check https://dblp.org/db/conf/icdt/index.html
to get an overview of previous editions of ICDT. The Program Committee
reserves the right to desk reject a submission when it is regarded to be
out of scope.

*Submission Instructions*
All submissions will be electronic via EasyChair
at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=icdt2024
Papers must be written in English and provide sufficient detail to allow
the program committee to assess their merits. The results must be
unpublished and not submitted for publication elsewhere, including the
proceedings of other symposia or workshops.
Papers must be submitted as PDF documents, using the LIPIcs style
(http://www.dagstuhl.de/en/publications/lipics/instructions-for-authors).
Papers must be at most 15 pages, excluding references. Additional
details may be included in a clearly marked appendix, which, however,
will be read at the discretion of the program committee (online
appendices are not allowed). Papers not conforming to these requirements
may be rejected without further consideration.
The proceedings will appear in the Leibniz International Proceedings in
Informatics (LIPIcs) series, based at Schloss Dagstuhl. This guarantees
that the proceedings will be available online and free of charge, while
the authors retain the rights over their work.
At least one author of each accepted paper is expected to register at
the conference and to present the paper.
**ANONYMOUS SUBMISSION**
For 2024, ICDT will adopt anonymous submission, in line with other
leading conferences in the database community such as SIGMOD and PODS.
The intent of anonymous submission is to ensure that the identity of the
authors is not presented to the reviewers during the review process.
Specifically, submitted papers should not list authors or affiliations,
and should not include acknowlegments to funding sources, or other
colleagues or collaborators. References to the authors' own prior work
should not be distinguished from other references. Where this is not
possible (for instance, when referring to a specific system to which the
authors have privileged access), anonymized citations are permissible.
For more background on the motivation for anonymous submissions, and the
mechanisms to achieve it, please consult [Snodgrass, 2007]
https://www2.cs.arizona.edu/~rts/pubs/TODS07.pdf
Simultaneously, we encouage authors to make their submissions available
to the community via pre-print services such as ArXiv and through talks.
We do require that work is not labeled as "under submission at ICDT"
or indicates that it is under review, but otherwise place no
restrictions on sharing results. This does not conflict with the
anonymous submission requirement.
*Awards*
An award will be given to the Best Paper. Also, an award will be given
to the Best Newcomer Paper written by newcomers to the field of database
theory. The latter award will preferentially be given to a paper written
only by students; in that case the award will be called Best
Student-Paper Award. The program committee reserves the following
rights: not to give any award; to split an award among several papers;
and to define the notion of a newcomer. Papers authored or co-authored
by program committee members are not eligible for any award.
