10th European Conference On Service-Oriented And Cloud Computing (ESOCC 2023)

October 24-26, 2023, Golden Bay Beach Hotel, Larnaca, Cyprus

AIM AND SCOPE

Nowadays, Service-Oriented and Cloud Computing are the primary approaches to build

large-scale distributed systems and deliver software services to end users. Cloud-native

software is pervading the delivery of enterprise applications, as they are composed of

(micro)services that can be independently developed and deployed by exploiting multiple

heterogeneous technologies. Resulting applications are polyglot service compositions that can

then be shipped in serverful or serverless platforms (e.g., using virtualization technologies).

These characteristics make Service-Oriented and Cloud Computing the natural answers for

fulfilling the industry’s need for flexibly scalable and maintainable enterprise applications, to

be delivered through state-of-the-art methodologies, like DevOps. To further support this,

researchers and practitioners need to create methods, tools and techniques to support

cost-effective and secure development as well as use of dependable devices, platforms,

services and service-oriented applications in the Cloud, now also considering the Cloud-IoT

computing continuum to exploit widespread adoption of smart connected things and the

increasing growth of their computing capabilities.

The European Conference on Service-Oriented and Cloud Computing (ESOCC) is the premier

conference on advances in the state-of-the-art and practice of Service-Oriented Computing

and Cloud Computing in Europe. ESOCC aims to facilitate the exchange between researchers

and practitioners in the areas of Service-Oriented Computing and Cloud Computing, as well as

to explore the new trends in those areas and foster future collaborations in Europe and beyond.

TOPICS OF INTEREST

ESOCC 2023 seeks original, high-quality contributions related to all aspects of Service-Oriented

and Cloud computing. Specific topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
• Applications for Service-Oriented and Cloud Computing, e.g., big data, commerce, energy,

finance, health, scientific computing, smart cities
• Blockchains for Service-Oriented and Cloud Computing
• Business aspects of Service-Oriented and Cloud Computing, e.g., business models,

brokerage, marketplaces, costs, pricing
• Business processes, e.g., service-based workflow deployment and management
• Cloud interoperability, service and Cloud standards,
• Cloud-IoT computing continuum, e.g., edge computing, fog computing, mobility computing,

next generation services/IoT
• Cloud-native architectures and paradigms, e.g., microservices and DevOps
• Cloud service models, e.g., IaaS, PaaS, SaaS, DBaaS, FaaS, etc.
• Deployment, composition, and management of applications in Service-Oriented and Cloud

Computing
• Foundations and formal methods for Service-Oriented and Cloud Computing
• Enablers for Service-Oriented and Cloud Computing, e.g., service discovery, orchestration,

matchmaking, monitoring, and analytics
• Model-Driven Engineering for Service-Oriented and Cloud Computing
• Multi-Cloud, cross-Cloud, and federated Cloud solutions
• Requirements engineering, design, development, and testing of applications in

Service-Oriented and Cloud Computing
• Semantic services and service mining
• Service and Cloud middlewares and platforms
• Software/service adaptation and evolution in Service-Oriented and Cloud Computing
• Storage, computation and network Clouds
• Sustainability and energy issues in Service-Oriented and Cloud Computing
• Quality aspects (e.g., governance, privacy, security, and trust) of Service-Oriented and Cloud

Computing
• Quality of Service (QoS) and Service-Level Agreement (SLA) for Service-Oriented and Cloud

Computing
• Social aspects of Service-Oriented and Cloud Computing, e.g., crowdsourcing services, social

and crowd-based Clouds
• Virtualization for Service-Oriented and Cloud Computing, e.g., serverless, container-based

virtualization, VMs

TYPES OF SUBMISSIONS

ESOCC 2023 invites submissions of the following kinds:
• Regular Research Papers (15 pages including references, for the technical and special tracks)
• PhD Symposium (12 pages including references)
• Projects and Industry Reports (Projects and Industry Reports (1 to 6 pages including

references, describing an ongoing EU or national project, or providing industrial perspectives

on innovative applications, technologies, or methods in ESOCC’s scope) 

We only accept original papers, not submitted for publication elsewhere. The papers must be

formatted according to the proceedings guidelines of Springer’s Lecture Notes in Computer

Science (LNCS) series (http://www.springer.com/lncs).

They must be submitted to the EasyChair site at:
 https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=esocc2023  by selecting the right track.

Accepted papers from all tracks will be published in the main conference proceedings by

Springer in the LNCS series. For publication to happen, at least one author of each accepted

paper is expected to register and present the work at the conference.

A journal special issue is planned, and authors of selected accepted papers will be invited to

submit extended versions of their articles.

SPECIAL TRACK PROPOSALS

ESOCC 2023 will host Special Tracks as part of its program. Special Tracks provide a space

where ESOCC participants can discuss, e.g., topics relevant to Service-Oriented and Cloud

Computing even if not explicitly mentioned in ESOCC’s topics of interest, early-stage research ideas

and/or results, or demonstrate industry-ready tools and research prototypes. Special Tracks

may be driven by research interests, needs from specific application domains, or aim at bringing

together practitioners and researchers from the area of Service-Oriented and Cloud Computing.

Proposals for special tracks should indicate the title of the Special Track, its aims and scope

(150-300 words), the Special Track chair(s), and the tentative members of the track’s  PC.

Please email your proposals as a PDF file to the PC chairs of ESOCC 2023, Florian Rademacher

(florian.rademacher at fh-dortmund.de) and Jacopo Soldani (jacopo.soldani at unipi.it). Special

Tracks will be selected for ESOCC 2023 using a lightweight review process.

Chairs of accepted Special Tracks can devise a Call for Papers for their track, which will be

published on ESOCC 2023 website, together with the provided information on the track (title,

aims and scope, PC). The Call for Papers for their track will then be disseminated alongside

that of ESOCC, and submissions will be handled through the EasyChair of ESOCC, which will

include a special track link.  Papers accepted for Special Tracks will be included in the main

conference proceedings of ESOCC 2023, published by Springer in the LNCS series. Special

Track chairs, presenters, and participants will be required to register through the ESOCC 2023

registration page.

In case of any questions related to the Special Tracks, please do not hesitate to contact the

Program Chairs.
