IEEE International Symposium onWomen in Services Computing (WISC 2023) 2023 IEEE International Symposium on Women in Services Computing (WISC 2023) Sunday July 2, Soldier Field The IEEE International Symposium on Women in Services Computing (WISC) was launched in 2020, evolving from the WISC Workshop, first held in 2017. The goal of the WISC Symposium is to provide an environment for women to exchange both technical and professional ideas and to network, in order to extend their personal associations in the field as a basis for advancement, recognition, mentoring and exchange of ideas. It is a cross-conference event at IEEE SERVICES 2023. It is sponsored jointly by IEEE SERVICES, IEEE Technical Committee on Services Computing (TCSVC), and CCF (China Computer Federation) Technical Committee on Service Computing (TCSC). The IEEE WISC Scholarship Program began in 2021 as a cornerstone of our commitment to growing the technical community of women in services computing all over the world. The scholarship program is sponsored jointly by IEEE World Congress on Services (SERVICES), IEEE Technical Community on Services Computing (TCSVC), and CCF (China Computer Federation) Technical Committee on Service Computing (TCSC). One of the highlights of the symposium is the presentation of the IEEE TCSVC Women in Services Computing Award, which will also include a talk by the winner focused on her own professional and personal journey to becoming a recognized leader in the Services Computing field. The world has dramatically changed over the past year in terms of how we communicate, interact, work, and conduct our daily lives. However, one thing remains constant and unchanging - the need to maintain the women in services community in which we can interact, foster and nurture our careers, long term goals, and next great endeavor!
