Dear Colleagues,

We are honored that IEEE ICDCS 2025 (https://icdcs2025.icdcs.org https://icdcs2025.icdcs.org/) will be hosting the 1st Workshop on Hot Topics in Distributed Machine Learning (HotDiML) this year!

HotDiML provides researchers working in the Distributed Machine Learning field with a platform for critical thinking, sharing both successes and failures, and fostering constructive discussions. The workshop encourages novel directions, accepting papers that offer fresh perspectives or critical analyses, even if not fully developed. These papers can provide valuable insights to advance the field.

We invite you to contribute with your recent work presented as position, research, experimental evaluation or report papers on Distributed Machine Learning. The accepted papers will be presented at the workshop and a plenary discussion will be held alongside these presentations. Please check the call for paper here: https://hotdiml.github.io/HotDiML2025/cfp/.

Important Dates:

Deadline for submissions: March 16th, 2025 Notification of acceptance: April 2nd, 2025 Camera-ready: April 16th, 2025 Workshop days: July 20th, 2025 Important Note: For each accepted paper, at least one author is required to register and attend the workshop in-person to present their paper on-site. No-show paper will be reported to the publisher and removed from the ICDCSW companion conference proceedings. All accepted and presented papers will be included in the IEEE ICDCSW companion conference proceedings and IEEE digital library. Note that the authors should adhere to ethic and professional standards of IEEE. Please refer to IEEE Code of Ethics and IEEE Policy of AI-Generated Text.

We look forward to your submission and the eventual inspiring conversations in Glasgow, Scotland, UK!

All the best!
