https://icsoc2024.redcad.tn
===========================================*
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 2024, the 22st event in this series, will take place in Tunis, Tunisia from 3 to 6 December 2024.
Submissions / Review Model
---------------------------------------
Normal submissions: Authors are welcome to submit papers to the normal submission round by the given deadline. They need to submit an abstract by 10 July 2024. After the normal submission deadline, the papers resubmitted from the early submission round and those submitted only to the normal submission round will undergo the same review process as other submissions. The decisions made from this normal review procedure will be final and no resubmission will be permitted afterwards.
Anonymous submissions: ICSOC implements a double-blind reviewing process. Author names and affiliations should not appear in the paper. The authors should make a reasonable effort not to reveal their identities or institutional affiliations in the text, figures, photos, links, or other data that is contained in the paper. Authors’ prior work should be preferably referred to in the third person; if this is not feasible, the references should be blinded. Submissions that violate these requirements will be rejected without review. The list of authors cannot be changed after the acceptance decision is made unless approved by the Program Chairs.
It should be noted that unformatted papers and papers beyond the page limit may not be reviewed.
