ICWE 2010 - 10th International Conference on Web Engineering

ICWE 2010
10th International Conference on Web Engineering
July 7-9, 2010, Vienna, Austria

Call for Doctoral Consortium Papers

http://icwe2010.webengineering.org/Calls/doctoral.aspx

The ICWE 2010 Doctoral Consortium aims at providing PhD students an opportunity to discuss their research in Web Engineering in an international forum, and with a panel of well-known experts in the field. Additionally, it will host several invited talks both to serve as motivation for students and to address their topics of interest.

The aims of the Doctoral Consortium are to:

* provide PhD students with a welcoming atmosphere to present their research, receive useful feedback from senior researchers, and exchange ideas and experiences with other students
* help PhD students develop their research questions, methodology and research plan
* support a new generation of researchers

PhD students carrying out research in Web Engineering are invited to submit a position paper to the Doctoral Consortium, to be reviewed by the Consortium's program committee. The criteria used for accepting a paper include potential quality of the research, contribution of the work to the field of Web Engineering, originality of the work, and overall quality of the position paper.

Accepted position papers will be presented during the ICWE 2010 Doctoral Consortium and will be published by Springer in the LNCS Series.

The author of the best proposal will be granted with a free registration to ICWE 2010.
