AIMS AND SCOPE
ICSOC, the International Conference on Service-Oriented Computing, is the 
premier international forum for academics, industry researchers, developers, 
and practitioners to report and share groundbreaking work in service-oriented 
computing. ICSOC fosters cross-community scientific excellence by gathering 
experts from various disciplines, such as services science, data science, 
management science, business-process management, distributed systems, wireless 
and mobile computing, cloud and edge computing, cyber-physical systems, 
Internet of Things (IoT), scientific workflows, artificial intelligence, 
machine learning, and services and software engineering.

ICSOC provides a premier international forum for presenting results and 
discussing ideas that further our knowledge and understanding of the various 
aspects (e.g., application and system aspects) related to Service Computing and 
identify research challenges in new research areas such as artificial 
intelligence, machine learning, big data analytics, IoT, digital twins and 
emerging technologies including quantum computing.

ICSOC, the International Conference on Service-Oriented Computing, is the 
premier international forum for academics, industry researchers, developers, 
and practitioners to report and share groundbreaking work in service-oriented 
computing.

ICSOC is the premier international forum for presenting the most recent and 
significant research contributions in service-oriented computing. These are 
organized in four focus areas:

Focus Area 1: Service-Oriented Technology Basics and Trends
    Service design, specification, discovery, customization, composition, 
testing, deployment, and operation
    Service change management
    Theoretical foundations of Service Science and Engineering
    Service monitoring and adaptive management
    Secure service lifecycle development
    Privacy management aspects for services
    Trust management for services
    Service mining and analytics
    Innovative service business models
    Service-based business process management

Focus Area 2: AI for Services and as-a-Service
    Data-provisioning services
    Data-driven service composition
    Data governance service-oriented architectures
    AI as service
    AI-empowered service construction and composition
    AI tools for service science and engineering
    Federated Learning Services

Focus Area 3: Novel Service Frameworks for Cloud Continuum and Smart 
Environments
    Green ICT and Sustainability of Service Systems
    Cloud service management
    Cloud and fog computing
    Cloud Edge continuum
    Edge service orchestration
    IoT Services
    XaaS (Everything as a Service)
    Services in cyber physical systems
    Smart services

Focus Area 4: Emerging Technologies
    Service-oriented architectures for digital twin systems
    Digital Twin as a Service (DTaaS)
    Metaverse services
    Lightweight service deployment and management
    Social networks and services
    Low code services
    Virtual reality and augmented reality services
    Blockchain services
    Cybersecurity services
    Quantum services
    Green services

We invite high-quality submissions of research papers describing original 
contributions that are unpublished and not under review elsewhere. The research 
papers will focus on traditional areas or in a specific focus area mentioned 
above. Research in each area will be considered strictly in the context of 
service-oriented computing. No papers would be accepted unless they clearly 
illustrate the contribution to the ICSOC areas of interest. Failure to provide 
such information can result in desk rejection.

SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS
Papers should be formatted according to Springer's LNCS Formatting Guidelines 
https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines.
 Authors are encouraged to provide supplementary material to suport 
reproducibility; however, reviewers are not required to consider it, and all 
decisions will be based solely on the main paper. Submissions must be in 
English and, at the initial submission stage, all papers must be between 10 and 
15 pages in length, including references. All papers must be submitted 
electronically to the Conference Submission System. Each paper must be 
submitted on or before the provided deadlines. Authors are kindly invited to 
respect the abstract submission deadline, which is set one week before the 
paper submission. After the review process, papers accepted as full papers may 
have a length of up to 15 pages (including abstract, figures and references). 
On the other hand, some papers may be accepted as short papers, in which case 
they must be limited to a maximum of 8 pages. The final submission should be 
formatted according to Springer's LNCS Camera-ready instructions.

ICSOC implements a double-blind reviewing process. Author names and 
affiliations should not appear in the paper. The authors should make a 
reasonable effort not to reveal their identities or institutional affiliations 
in the text, figures, photos, links, or other data that is contained in the 
paper. Authors' prior work should be referred to in the third person. 
Submissions that violate these requirements will be desk rejected without 
review. The list of authors cannot be changed after the acceptance decision is 
made unless approved by the Program Chairs.

PROCEEDINGS
Accepted papers will be published in a volume of the Springer Lecture Notes in 
Computer Science (LNCS) series and will be indexed in DBLP, Google Scholar, 
EI-Compendex, SCImago and Scopus.

For each accepted paper, at least one author must attend the conference and 
present the paper. The deadline for identifying and registering this individual 
author is together with the camera-ready submission.
