The Doctoral Symposium aims at disseminating research-in-progress conducted by novice researchers. A board of experts will discuss with the researchers to suggest new perspectives and improvements to the PhD theses.
The submitted research can address any of CIbSE 2022 research topics. We recommend, although it is not compulsory, that the research is at an intermediate stage (~ 2nd year) so that experts’ suggestions could be included in the PhD work.
The suggested paper structure is as follows:
- Introduction to the field of research and identification of the main challenges therein
- Explicit formulation of the research questions and objectives justifying why they were chosen
- Outline of the current knowledge of the problem domain as well as the state of existing solutions
- Sketch of the research methodology that is being applied
- Introduction of the proposed solution and the results achieved so far
- The statement in what aspects the suggested solution is different or better as compared to existing approaches
- An indication of the outstanding issues and description of the next steps that are planned
- Provision of a list of references
Doctoral Symposium papers shall be authored by the doctoral candidate exclusively (thus, the name of the supervisor should not be included). All papers must be submitted in PDF format through EasyChair (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=cibse2022). Submissions must be written in English, Portuguese, or Spanish.
