The IDEAS series provides an international forum for discussion of the problems of engineering data driven systems involving not only database technology but the related areas of artificial intelligence, information retrieval, multimedia, human machine interface, speech, natural language processing and communication. The goal of IDEAS is to foster closer interaction among the industrial, research and user communities and provides an excellent opportunity for them to meet, discuss ideas, examine the current ones and develop new solutions and research directions. Along with the technical sessions, the symposium also features prominent invited speakers. The series are scheduled annually and have been held since 1997 in North America, Europe and Asia. It has attracted participants from governmental and non-governmental agencies, industries, and academia to exchange ideas and share experiences.

IDEAS 2027 has expanded its scope to include AI and database engineering works. Topics include, but not limited to:
Artificial intelligence (AI) and its applications
Big data applications
Big data and scalable analytics
