CALL FOR ABSTRACTS

PhD Forum @ NetSys 2019, March 18 till March 21, 2019

http://netsys2019.org/calls/phd-forum/

************************************************************************

The PhD Forum at the Networked Systems 2019 follows the tradition and format of similar events at international conferences such as ICNP, PerCom, UbiComp, and Pervasive. The aim is twofold. First, it should provide PhD students in any phase of their career with an opportunity to discuss their topics with experts and gain general feedback as well as specific comments on their proposal. Second, the PhD Forum is an excellent opportunity for young researchers to start a personal network with other PhD students as well as with already established experts.

What can I expect?

A full-day event of discussions and fun with your direct peers, and visibility at the main conference.

The aim of the PhD Forum is to discuss research topics and PhD projects at different stages (early to senior). The PhD forum involves the discussion of meta aspects and experiences in course of a PhD. To tailor the discussion of meta aspects, we will request input from the participants in advance of the PhD Forum.

In contrast to previous years, we will also have two keynote speakers who will report about their research journey from a PhD student to a leading expert. Dr. Johann Schlamp (Leitwert) will talk about building an Internet-scale measurement infrastructure and Dr. Heiko Will (Safety io) will talk about innovation and development of advanced solutions from a software perspective.

In addition to the PhD Forum, a presentation of all participants will take place during a poster session at the main conference. A brief introduction of the topics (One-Minute-Madness) is used to attract attention of conference participants to this poster seesion.

The PhD Forum is a special opportunity to discuss research plans and results face-to-face with professors and senior researchers in individual groups outside of the own lab.

What should I submit?

Prospective participants should prepare an application that includes the following information:

- Research Statement: a two-page abstract (IEEE, at least 10pt font, 2-column format) that sketches the research proposal of the PhD student, the contribution to knowledge, and how the research will advance the state of the art. The research proposal will not appear in the official conference proceedings but is planned to be published on the conference web page.

- Curriculum Vitae: a brief CV that lists the education and research interests of the PhD student.

Please provide us with a single PDF document. Upload your application via https://phdforum.netsys2019.org.

In addition, a poster has to be presented at the main conference in a special PhD poster session.
