The IC2E Doctoral Symposium is intended to bring together PhD candidates working on Cloud Engineering related topics. It will provide PhD candidates with an opportunity to present their research in front of an audience of peers, senior faculty, and industrial representatives in a supportive environment. In addition, the symposium will be an excellent opportunity for students to explore issues of academic and research careers and build relationships with other students and faculty working in related fields.
The goals of the IC2E Doctoral Symposium are to provide PhD candidates with the opportunity to:
The event consists of student presentation sessions and a panel discussion. Each participant will be given time for a short presentation followed immediately by an in-depth and constructive discussion led by the panel. The event will conclude with a panel discussion where panelists will have another opportunity to provide general tips and advice to the group, including job search and career options.
The topics of interest are the same as in the main IC2E conference with a special focus on cloud sustainability:
The symposium is open only to active doctoral students. Participants should be far enough away to have a concrete research proposal and not plan to finish their dissertation within six months of the symposium.
Submissions must be from a single author, on the topic of the candidate's thesis, and must include the name of the thesis advisor. The overall submission should be up to four pages long, following the IEEE Manuscript Template for Conference Proceedings and the following structure:
The submission must be done in PDF via the Web submission form at EasyChair upon selecting the PhD Symposium option. Accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings.
