Call for Doctoral Symposium Papers and Participation
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
The annual ACM/IFIP Middleware conference is a major forum for the
discussion of innovations and recent scientific advances of
middleware systems with a focus on the design, implementation,
deployment, and evaluation of distributed systems, platforms and
architectures for computing, storage, and
communication.
Middleware 2019 will be held at UC Davis, California from 9 to 13
December 2019.
The conference will include a doctoral symposium, to which all PhD
students working on the topics of the Middleware conference are
invited to apply. The doctoral symposium will be held prior to the
main conference.
The Middleware doctoral symposium is a welcoming and supportive
environment allowing all PhD students to receive feedback, discuss
their work, and prepare to get the most out of their participation
to the main conference.
All participating students will be offered the opportunity to
engage with their peers, as well as with senior academic and
industrial members of the Middleware community. This will include
the feedback of panel members on the day of the symposium and
individual meetings with a personal mentor during the conference.
The symposium is open to PhD students at any stage of their
studies.
Applicants will be divided into two groups:
- Planners: students at an early-stage of their thesis who are
focused on crafting their research proposal and completing
background research.
- Finishers: students closer to finishing their thesis or
dissertation and thinking about how to present their research, its
results, and its impact.
All PhD students carrying out research on middleware topics are
invited to submit a position paper to the doctoral symposium.
Papers will be
peer-reviewed by the symposium’s committee of selected mentors.
The criteria for accepting papers includes the extent of the
contribution of the work to the field, the originality of the
problem, and the overall quality of the position paper.
Position papers should fit within the topics of the Middleware
2019 main conference Call for Papers.
Position papers are limited to 2 pages (for students in the
planner category) or 4 pages (for students in the Finishers
category). Submissions must use the same format as for research
papers (ACM SIGPLAN 9pt or 10pt). The suggested content is
detailed on the Middleware 2019 website:
http://2019.middleware-conference.org/doctoral.html
Contributions to the Middleware 2019 PhD Workshop will appear in a
proceedings that supplements the main conference proceedings.
Accepted position paper will lead to a presentation during the
doctoral symposium, which may require the preparation of a poster
for the symposium and for the main conference.
Doctoral students that submit their work to this symposium are
strongly encouraged to apply for student travel grants to attend
Middleware 2019. Students participating in the doctoral symposium
will be given priority for the travel grants.
