ICDE 2018 invites Panel proposals on all aspects of data management. We encourage submissions on issues of current interest to the community that are well-suited to open discussion and debate. Of particular interest are proposals on topics that both researchers and practitioners could relate to.

Panel Submission: September 29th October 1st, 2017
Notification of acceptance: December 22nd, 2017

Submission Guidelines for Panel Proposals
Each proposal should include the title of the panel, the names, affiliations, and brief biographies of the moderator and the panelists, and a brief (no more than one page in the ICDE 2018 submission format) description of the content and format of the discussion.
Panels should focus on discussion and debate. We discourage formats that revolve around prepared slides and lengthy individual presentations by the panelists. Proposals should include specific examples of provocative questions to be addressed by the panel, and should clearly answer the following questions:
- Why is the topic of current interest to the ICDE community?
- Why is the topic well-suited to an open panel discussion?
- What should attendees expect to gain from the panel?
Short panel summaries will appear in the ICDE 2018 conference proceedings. The submission must be sent via email to cmohan@us.ibm.com.
