(AICCSA) is going to host the Ph.D. Forum for the graduate students working
toward their Ph.D. on topics that are in the scope of the AICCSA. The aim
of the forum is to provide PhD students at all stages of their research a
supportive environment to discuss their research proposal, receive guidance
and feedback from leading members of the computer systems and applications
research community and promote networking and collaboration while enjoying
the AICCSA conference and many associated workshops. A special session will
be devoted to career mentoring for the students in attendance that will
involve round table discussions and CV preparation workshop.
*Submission Instructions*
All submissions should be 2 pages long as extended abstract, formatted
according to the IEEE Computer Society Press proceedings style guide and
submitted electronically in PDF format. Please register as authors and
submit your papers on EasyChair (Here) while selecting the "PhD Forum"
track during the submission. Student applicants must be enrolled in a Ph.D.
program at the time of submission and first author of the paper should be
the PhD student followed by the PhD supervisors.
PhD students working in any area addressed by one or more topics under the
AICSSA'25 conference main tracks can submit a paper describing the core
problem of their PhD research and its relevance by providing a clear
statement of the problem they intend to address, the motivation of the
interest and novelty of the underlying research challenges, the explanation
of the main ideas by examples, and a description of the proposed research
plan and expected results. Submissions should be written using the
following structure:
*Problem Statement and Motivation: *What problem do you solve in your Ph.D.
project and why is it exciting? Present scenarios to motivate the research,
highlight its challenges. Articulate your objectives.
*Background and Related Work: *How is it done today, and what are the
limits of current practice? Discuss your findings from your literature
review and highlight what is missing and how you are going to improve
state-of-the-art.
*Approach and Uniqueness:* What is new in your approach and why do you
think it will be successful?
*Current Status:* Describe the current state of the work and if applicable
present the preliminary results that have been already reached.
*Expected Results and Contributions: *What are the expected outcomes and
how will those enable/enrich the community, an application domain, or a
broader ecosystem?
*Important Dates (Anywhere on Earth)*
Paper proposals due: 30 June, 2025
Notification of acceptance: 28 July, 2025
*Accepted PhD Papers*
If selected, authors shall prepare a final camera-ready version of the
paper, taking into account all feedback from reviewers, and formatted
according to the IEEE Computer Society Press proceedings style guide. PhD
Symposium papers will be advertised in the final program and will be
submitted to IEEE Xplore as part of the AICCSA'25 proceedings. Papers will
also be available as part of the IEEE Digital Library.
*Review Process, Format of the Forum, Best Paper Award*
Each submission will be reviewed by at least two experts of the PhD Forum
organization and will be evaluated in terms of their relevance to the
AICCSA'25 topics, motivation and research challenges, soundness of the
methodology proposed and feasibility of the research plan. Each accepted
paper will have two different opportunities to be presented. Besides the
full presentation during the PhD Forum sessions, during the main
conference, a "PhD Elevator Pitch Session" will be organized where each PhD
student will showcase their research shortly (3min presentation). The Best
PhD Forum Paper will be selected, and the award will be presented during
the main conference. The program of the PhD Symposium will include 1 or 2
invited presentations from senior expert researchers, on topics that may
help the PhD students successfully achieving their PhD or in their career
prospects after getting their PhD.
