Call for Demonstrations

The Demonstration Track of IEEE BigComp 2026 invites exciting, highly interactive demo proposals in big data and smart computing research, development, and practice. This is the first time IEEE BigComp features a dedicated Demonstration Track, and we welcome innovative contributions that showcase practical systems, prototypes, and tools. All demonstration submissions must:

  • Provide the motivation behind the demonstrated concept(s).
  • Describe the system and the technology.
  • Explain what features and scenarios will be demonstrated, and
  • State the novelty and significance of the contribution.

Highlights for Demonstration Track

  • Demonstrations will be presented at the IEEE BigComp 2026 conference and the accompanying manuscripts will be published in the IEEE BigComp 2026 proceedings.
  • We encourage submissions to include a demonstration video and to creatively use the system on different scenarios, datasets and use cases.
  • Accompanying paper format is 4 pages, including references.

Video Submission

We highly encourage the submission of a demonstration video (of up to 5 minutes, 50MB max. file size) together with your demonstration proposal. The purpose of the video is to convey an impression of what will be demonstrated and does not need to show the final, polished version. Both the demonstration proposal and the video will then be accessible by the reviewers. Your video could summarize your demonstration and also audio-visually highlight its most important aspects, such as the user interface, options for user interactions, the system setup, etc. The video should be submitted in MPEG/AVI/MP4 format and be playable by the common media players. Please note that you will need to first finish your demo proposal submission, and then edit it to add the video as a supplementary file.


Important Dates (Timezone: AoE)

  • Submission deadline: October 26, 2025
  • Notification date: November 16, 2025

Dates Criteria for Selecting Demos

Demonstration proposals will be selected based on several criteria, including (i) relevance, (ii) novelty, (iii) depth, and (iv) the “wow” factor of the proposed demonstration. The proposal must clearly describe the functionality that will be demonstrated, and how the audience will be able to interact with the proposed system.


Demo Submission Information

Manuscripts must be prepared in accordance with the IEEE format. The length of demo papers is 4 pages, including references. Only electronic submissions in PDF format will be considered. Demonstration proposals should be submitted via email to yanlics@whut.edu.cn.
