Call for Papers: IEEE International Conference on e-Science and Grid Computing (eScience 2025)

The 21st IEEE International eScience Conference (eScience’25) will be held in Chicago, USA, from September 15-18, 2025.

eScience’25 welcomes paper submissions for its technical program, serving as an interdisciplinary forum for researchers, developers, and users of applications and enabling IT technologies. The conference encourages conceptualization, implementation, and experience contributions that drive innovation in data- and compute-intensive research, covering all disciplines and infrastructure technologies.
