[DMANET] [ICSOC'21 - PhD Symposium] CFP (Extended Deadline)

Call for ICSOC PhD Symposium papers
The ICSOC Ph.D. Symposium 2021 is an international forum for Ph.D. students working in all areas related to the service-oriented computing. It is intended to bring together Ph.D. students working on foundations, techniques, tools, and applications of service-oriented computing, and provide them an opportunity to present and discuss their research to an audience of peers and senior faculty in a supportive environment, as well as to participate in a number of plenary sessions with service-oriented computing academics.
The goals of this Ph.D. Symposium are:

* To provide an opportunity to meet experts from different backgrounds working on topics related to service-oriented computing field
* To bring together Ph.D. students and established researchers in the field of service-oriented computing
* To provide fruitful feedback and advice to the selected Ph.D. students on their research project, and to stimulate the exchange of ideas, suggestions, and experiences among participants
* To provide the opportunity to discuss concerns about research, supervision, job market, and other career-related issues
We particularly encourage Ph.D. students who are still developing their research methodology or are somewhere in the middle of their research program to submit their preliminary results to this symposium. Topics are restricted to their doctoral work within the scope of the ICSOC conference. To be eligible for the Ph.D. Symposium, the candidate must be a current doctoral student within a recognized university. Ideally, the candidate should have at least 12 months work remaining before expected completion, and at least 12 months of work already performed. However, all Ph.D. students are eligible regardless of their doctoral stage.
