IEEE SERVICES 2019 Important Notices

Important Notice – Worldwide Services Computing Community, Importance of Continued Archiving and Indexing of Past and Future IEEE Proceedings

This is a public announcement to the global services computing community. The IEEE World Congress on Services (IEEE SERVICES) to be held in Milan, Italy from July 3 to 8, 2019 is the only legitimate long-standing IEEE sponsored Congress completely owned by IEEE and IEEE Computer Society, including seven co-located conferences: IEEE ICWS, IEEE SCC, IEEE Cloud, IEEE ICIOT, IEEE EDGE, IEEE ICCC and IEEE BigData Congress. The IEEE World Congress on Services launched by the IEEE TCSVC from the start is celebrating its 13th anniversary in 2019. For continuity and worldwide recognition and visibility, authors are hereby reminded of the importance of continuing archiving and indexing of past and future IEEE proceedings, such as IEEE ICWS and IEEE SCC. See Previous Proceedings for the entire set of IEEE proceedings archived at IEEE Xplore: IEEE ICWS, IEEE SCC, IEEE Cloud, IEEE ICIOT, IEEE EDGE, IEEE ICCC and IEEE BigData Congress. Note that any other similarly named conferences are fresh starters beginning in 2018 and operated by a different organization in Seattle, Washington that has nothing to do with IEEE.

[Fall 2018] Important Notice

The IEEE World Congress on Services in Milan is the latest continuation of a 15-year history of outstanding conferences. The IEEE World Congress on Services is in no way associated with any similarly-named non-IEEE event.
