***************** Doctoral Symposium ******************
******************************************************

The second IEEE International Conference on Autonomic Computing and 
Self-Organizing Systems (ACSOS) provides a forum to share the latest 
research results, ideas and experiences in autonomic, self-adaptive, and 
self-organizing systems.

ACSOS was founded in 2020 as a merging of the two long-running IEEE ICAC 
and SASO conferences, bringing together the two leading communities in 
this research space.

The Doctoral Symposium provides an international forum for PhD students 
working in ACSOS-related research fields to present their work to a 
diverse audience of leading experts in the field, to gain both 
insightful feedback and discussion points around their research as well 
as the invaluable experience of presenting new research to an 
international audience. The symposium has a strong history, though ICAC 
and SASO, of connecting young researchers with highly experienced peers 
to forge connections, which can last for many years.

PhD students are invited to submit a two-page abstract, with another 
page for references, which should use the below format to describe the 
key motivation of their research, the major contribution (either actual 
or expected, depending on the research stage), discuss their 
methodology, and present the current status of the research. Authors of 
accepted papers will have the opportunity to present their work both at 
the doctoral symposium and in brief at the main conference itself, 
offering a very wide audience for their research.

Students at any stage of their PhD are welcome to submit. Reviews, 
feedback, and expectations will be adapted appropriately to the relative 
stage of each submission.

#### Mentoring Program

This year the Doctoral Symposium will employ a mentoring program, in 
which every author of an accepted paper will be paired with an 
experienced mentor from the community. Mentors will help introduce the 
student to the community, offer extended discussion of their research 
objectives and career opportunities, and will host their students 
throughout the event to help gain the best experience from an 
international conference.
