Dear Gustaf Neumann,

The 5th International Joint Conference on Knowledge Discovery, Knowledge Engineering and Knowledge Management - IC3K 2013 (http://www.ic3k.org) would like to promote a forum where PhD students who have already started their research can present their PhD projects and discuss their research questions and research methodologies with an advisory board composed by some of the most eminent researchers present at the venue of the conference. This will, hopefully, be very helpful for the future path of the PhD students whose work is selected to be presented and discussed at this academic forum and furthermore it will be an opportunity for them to create additional connections with specialists in their field.

The paper that a PhD student can submit until June 24 needs to be written in a specific format, appropriate for facilitating the aforementioned discussion, therefore it is expected to be a much simpler paper and definitely not a regular paper.

There will be a review and selection process, though, and the accepted papers will be included in the CD-ROM that also includes the proceedings of the conference and the papers of the Doctoral Consortium presented at the venue will also be included in the SCITEPRESS Digital Library. However, they will not be included in the book of proceedings as archival publications therefore they will remain free of copyright and the registration will be a "student registration", i.e. at a 50% discount regarding regular registrations.

Should you have any question or suggestions please don't hesitate to contact me.

Kind regards, Vera Coelho IC3K Secretariat
