**** CALL FOR PAPERS ****

PhD Symposium track
ESOCC 2022 (9th European Conference and Service-Oriented and Cloud Computing)

March 22nd-24th, 2022
Lutherstadt Wittenberg, Germany 

*** Aims and scope ***

The ESOCC 2022 PhD Symposium is an international forum for PhD students working 
in the areas addressed by the ESOCC conference (which list of topics of 
interest is recapped at the end of this message). The main aim of the Symposium 
is to give PhD students an opportunity to present their research activity and 
perspectives, to critically discuss them with other PhD students and with 
established researchers in the area, and to get fruitful feedback and advices 
on their research activities.

PhD students working on topics related to the scope of the ESOCC conference can 
submit a short report providing a clear statement of the problem they intend to 
address including the current state of the art, motivating the interest and 
novelty of the underlying research challenges, demonstrating the ideas by 
examples, and describing the proposed research plan and expected results.

*** Submissions ***

Papers should not exceed 8 pages formatted according to the Springer LNCS 
proceedings guidelines. They should be first-authored by the PhD student and 
indicate the name of her/his supervisor(s) and their affiliation. Papers can be 
submitted via the EasyChair submission page of the conference 
(https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=esocc2022 
<https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=esocc2022>), by selecting "ESOCC 2022 
- PhD Symposium" track. 

Papers will be peer-reviewed by the members of the program committee. All 
accepted papers will appear in the post-conference proceedings devoted to the 
satellite events of ESOCC 2022, in the Springer CCIS series. The best student 
paper will also be awarded with the "Best PhD student award", which will be 
announced at the end of the symposium. PhD students authoring accepted papers 
are expected to attend the symposium to present their paper. If not, the paper 
will not be included in post-conference proceedings and it will not be eligible 
for the "Best PhD student award".
