TYPES OF SUBMISSIONS

ESOCC 2023 invites submissions of the following kinds:
• Regular Research Papers (15 pages including references, for the technical and special tracks)
• PhD Symposium (12 pages including references)
• Projects and Industry Reports (Projects and Industry Reports (1 to 6 pages including

references, describing an ongoing EU or national project, or providing industrial perspectives

on innovative applications, technologies, or methods in ESOCC’s scope) 

We only accept original papers, not submitted for publication elsewhere. The papers must be

formatted according to the proceedings guidelines of Springer’s Lecture Notes in Computer

Science (LNCS) series (http://www.springer.com/lncs).

They must be submitted to the EasyChair site at:
 https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=esocc2023  by selecting the right track.

Accepted papers from all tracks will be published in the main conference proceedings by

Springer in the LNCS series. For publication to happen, at least one author of each accepted

paper is expected to register and present the work at the conference.

A journal special issue is planned, and authors of selected accepted papers will be invited to

submit extended versions of their articles.

SPECIAL TRACK PROPOSALS

ESOCC 2023 will host Special Tracks as part of its program. Special Tracks provide a space

where ESOCC participants can discuss, e.g., topics relevant to Service-Oriented and Cloud

Computing even if not explicitly mentioned in ESOCC’s topics of interest, early-stage research ideas

and/or results, or demonstrate industry-ready tools and research prototypes. Special Tracks

may be driven by research interests, needs from specific application domains, or aim at bringing

together practitioners and researchers from the area of Service-Oriented and Cloud Computing.

Proposals for special tracks should indicate the title of the Special Track, its aims and scope

(150-300 words), the Special Track chair(s), and the tentative members of the track’s  PC.

Please email your proposals as a PDF file to the PC chairs of ESOCC 2023, Florian Rademacher

(florian.rademacher at fh-dortmund.de) and Jacopo Soldani (jacopo.soldani at unipi.it). Special

Tracks will be selected for ESOCC 2023 using a lightweight review process.

Chairs of accepted Special Tracks can devise a Call for Papers for their track, which will be

published on ESOCC 2023 website, together with the provided information on the track (title,

aims and scope, PC). The Call for Papers for their track will then be disseminated alongside

that of ESOCC, and submissions will be handled through the EasyChair of ESOCC, which will

include a special track link.  Papers accepted for Special Tracks will be included in the main

conference proceedings of ESOCC 2023, published by Springer in the LNCS series. Special

Track chairs, presenters, and participants will be required to register through the ESOCC 2023

registration page.

In case of any questions related to the Special Tracks, please do not hesitate to contact the

Program Chairs.
