      "Organic Computing Doctoral Dissertation Colloquium"

(OC-DDC 2022)

 

June 30th - July 1st, 2022 at the University of Hohenheim in Stuttgart,
Germany

 

The Organic Computing Doctoral Dissertation Colloquium (OC-DDC) is organised
by the 

Special Interest Group on Organic Computing within the Gesellschaft für
Informatik.

 

The 2022 edition will take place at the University of Hohenheim in
Stuttgart, Germany 

from Thursday, June 30th to Friday, July 1st.

 

Details on the event (and its predecessors) are available at: 

https://sites.google.com/view/ocddc-2022

 

We invite applications from PhD students at any stage of their doctoral
studies on

Organic Computing, Autonomic Computing, intelligent systems, self-adaptation
and 

self-organisation, self-aware computing systems, autonomous learning, self-*
mechanisms, 

trustworthy systems, and related research topics.

 

 

==* Colloquium Theme *==

 

The intent of the DDC is to bring together PhD students who have their
research focus

within the broader Organic Computing community and will not have defended
their thesis

before June 2022. The main goal of this colloquium is to foster excellence
in OC-related

research by providing students with feedback and advice that are
particularly relevant to their

doctoral studies and career development. Each participant will take part in
the colloquium

organisation and the review process for the other participants. Keynote
speakers will

present current research in the field. They will be available during the
OC-DDC and

participate in the feedback process for the PhD students. Details on the
keynote speakers will be

available as soon as possible (see website).

 

The schedule includes:

- Prepare an extended abstract or short paper of 6 pages (max.) reflecting
your PhD

  concept

- Participate in the review process

- Participate in the (supervised) decision process (acceptance of
submissions)

- Present your work to an audience consisting mainly of other PhD students
from your

  community

- Identify points of contact between your work and others

- Build your social research network

- Meet experts in your research domain and listen to their invited talks and
expertise

- Enjoy the opportunity to improve your PhD work, overcome stipulations and
learn from the experts

 

PhD students are invited to participate by submitting an extended abstract
of up to 6 pages

(written in English, in Springer's LNCS style). The colloquium will give
participants the

opportunity to present their ongoing research in a friendly forum. They will
obtain valuable

feedback from colloquium attendees in a constructively critical and informal
atmosphere.

 

After the OC-DDC, each participant will be invited to prepare a book chapter
for an edited

book. The book chapter will contain approx. 14 pages.

For instance, the book of the DDC's 2014 edition is available at:
