Call for Research/Industry Papers
ICSOC, the International Conference on Service-Oriented Computing, is  
the premier international forum for academics, industry researchers,  
developers, and practitioners to report and share groundbreaking work  
in service-oriented computing. ICSOC fosters cross-community  
scientific excellence by gathering experts from various disciplines,  
such as business-process management, distributed systems, computer  
networks, wireless and mobile computing, cloud computing,  
cyber-physical systems, networking, scientific workflows, services  
science, data science, management science, and software engineering.

ICSOC provides a high-quality forum for presenting results and  
discussing ideas that further our knowledge and understanding of the  
various aspects (e.g. application and system aspects) related to  
Service Computing applied to new application areas and gain insights  
into a variety of computing, networked, and cyber-physical systems  
ranging from mobile devices and Internet-of-Things (IoT) applications  
to large-scale cloud computing systems and the smart grid.

ICSOC 2019 , the 17th event in this series, will take place in  
Toulouse, France from October 28 to October 31, 2019. Following on the  
ICSOC tradition, it will feature visionary keynote presentations,  
research and industry presentations, workshops, tool demonstrations,  
tutorials, and a Ph.D. track.

Paper Submission
The conference solicits outstanding original research and practice  
papers on all aspects of service-oriented computing. Papers should  
clearly demonstrate the research or practical contribution, the  
relevance to the field, and the relationship to prior work. Submitted  
papers will be evaluated according to their rigor, significance,  
originality, technical quality, and exposition. All papers will be  
reviewed by at least three members of the Program Committee.

Papers should be formatted according to Springer’s LNCS Formatting  
Guidelines. Submissions must be in English and not exceed 15 pages  
including all references and figures. All papers must be submitted  
electronically in PDF to the Conference Submission System.

For each accepted paper, at least one author must attend the  
conference and present the paper. The deadline for identifying and  
registering this individual author will be at the time when the  
camera-ready version is submitted.

Best Paper Award
The Best Paper Award, sponsored by Springer, will be given to the  
paper that the Program Committee judges to be the best in quality,  
execution, and impact among all the accepted papers in the conference.
