Call for Papers

The International Symposium on Service Science (ISSS 2015),
Leipzig, May 8th, 2015

Hosted by

University of Leipzig Institute of Applied Informatics (InfAI) e.V.

For the sixth time, the "International Symposium on Service Science (ISSS)" will offer a unique platform for advancing research and discussions in Service Science. We cordially invited researchers and practitioners alike to join our effort to sharpen the multidisciplinary view on services in different fields. The ISSS will be held as a part of the scientific program of the “Leipzig Days of Applied Informatics/Leipziger Tage der Angewandten Informatik” in Leipzig, Germany as a one-day event on the 8th of May, 2015.

In 2015, the ISSS is thematically driven by the observation that digitalization is driving the economy and new or improved services are a result of a convergence between data, its leverage and business application.

The organizers invite researchers and practitioners from various connected fields to provide contributions to be included in the conference program. Topics should be in line with one or more of the themes listed below:

• networked services and web integration
• engineering of service systems
• service testing and simulation
• further connected Work
