The 27th ACM Symposium on Document Engineering
August 24, 2027 to August 27, 2027
Mount Royal University, Calgary, AB, Canada
Welcome to DocEng 2027
The 27th ACM Symposium on Document Engineering (DocEng’27) brings together research that advances the state of the art in computational creation and processing of documents as structured, multifaceted information objects. The notion of document covers text, images, equations, tables, diagrams, musical scores and other notations, both in current and historical documents. DocEng focuses on the principles, models, technologies, and tools that enable the design, creation, processing, transformation, management, and use of documents and document collections. This includes aspects of security, interoperability, reliability, accessibility, and human factors in this field.
Attendees at this international forum share an interest in treating documents as engineered artifacts that underpin trustworthy communication, effective knowledge exchange, cultural preservation, and innovation across diverse domains.
In particular, DocEng'27 welcomes contributions on the theme of Documents that Shape Knowledge and Culture.
DocEng 2027 will take place in Calgary, Alberta on August 24-27, 2027. The detailed programme will be made available in due time.
