Scientific Events
The Doctoral school of Automatic Control and Computers invites the Ph.D. students doing at present their doctorate programs and their scientific coordinators to participate in scientific events especially organized for students and in prestigious international scientific conferences announced for the period 2018-2019, having topics in the doctorate domains ”System Engineering” and ”Computers and Information Technology”.
You have the possibility to present results of the research carried out in the doctoral program, to exchange ideas with researchers working in close scientific domains, and to publish the presented papers in the proceedings volumes of these conferences and in special issues of journals indexed in international, recognized databases and digital libraries.
Scientific events of interest in 2018-2019:
- Doctoral Consortium, Berlin, Fraunhofer FOKUS
- 22nd International Conference on System Theory, Control and Computing – ICSTCC 2018
- 16th IFAC Symposium on Information Control Problems in Manufacturing – INCOM 2018
- 8th Workshop on Holonic and Multi-Agent Manufacturing – SOHOMA 2018
- Doctoral Consortium, 18-20 July 2018, Berlin, Fraunhofer FOKUS, http://dc.bisconf.info, Organizer and Chair: Professor, Ph.D., Habil. Florin Pop, University POLITEHNICA of Bucharest, Romania: florin.pop@cs.pub.ro
The Doctoral Consortium will be held in conjunction with BIS 2018 conference, a well-respected event joining international researchers to discuss the wide range of the development, implementation, application and improvement of business applications and systems. The Consortium provides doctoral students with the chance to present and obtain comment on their research, to hear about the work of their peers at other universities, and to interact todays leading researchers from different universities and countries. It is also an opportunity to meet interesting people and make new friendships. We invite PhD students at different career stages: advanced students who have a clear topic and research approach as well as less experiences students, on the beginning of their doctoral track.
The Consortium will be divided into two parts: plenary session and mentoring session. During the plenary session each student will present his or her work (research ideas, the current progress, future plans) and then receive constructive criticism and insights relates to his or her paper. We expect that each presentation will be given in 15 min followed by 30 min interactive discussions. Students should declare the stage of their PhD theses. This precision is very important in order to avoid any misunderstanding on the scope of the discussion. The mentoring session will take place after the plenary session at PhD Cafe and last 90 min. Consortium Mentors will be assigned to each student to provide individual feedback and advice on the paper, the focus of the work and further developments. Each mentor will meet maximum two students at once.
Papers must be submitted in PDF format according to Springer LNBIP template.
Papers can be submitted in two forms:
- Long papers: max. 12 pages
- Demo papers: max. 4 pages
Accepted papers will be presented during the plenary sessions. Presentation could be based on original work or work that has been published before. However, we understand that a paper that will be submitted to the conference proceedings will be your original work that has not yet been published or submitted elsewhere, and that you agree to publish your work when it is accepted by the Program Committee. Only long papers will be published in conference proceedings (publication in a volume of the LNBIP series (Springer)). Post-presentation papers have to be reviewed and accepted by Program Committee in order to be published.
Papers must be submitted in PDF format according to Springer LNBIP template. Language of presentation: English

SOHOMA’18 International Workshop on Service Orientation in Holonic and Multi-Agent Manufacturing is organized by Universita degli Studi di Bergamo and Politecnico di Milano in collaboration with University Politehnica of Bucharest (the CIMR Research Centre in Computer Integrated Manufacturing and Robotics), University of Valenciennes and Hainaut-Cambrésis (the LAMIH Laboratory of Industrial and Human Automation Control, Mechanical Engineering and Computer Science) and University of Lorraine (the CRAN Research Centre in Automation of Nancy). The SOHOMA’18 workshop has scientific support from IEEE – IES Technical Committee on Industrial Agents and from GdR MACS-IMS2 Research Group on Intelligent Manufacturing Systems and Services.
The main objective of annual SOHOMA workshop is to foster innovation in smart and sustainable manufacturing and logistics systems and in this context to promote concepts, methods and solutions for the digital transformation of manufacturing through service orientation and agent-based control with distributed intelligence. The theme of the SOHOMA’18 Workshop is “Digital transformation of manufacturing with agent-based control and service orientation of Internet-scale platforms”.
SOHOMA18 is a scientific event associated to the 16th IFAC Symposium on Information Control Problems in Manufacturing, INCOM18, 11-13 June 2018 Bergamo Italy.
