I wanted to use this note to remind you that the paper submission
deadline of IEEE International Conference onn Services Computing (SCC
2005) is approaching. Thank you very much for your great support.
2005 IEEE International Conference on Services Computing (SCC 2005)
===================================================================
July 12-15, 2005, Orlando, Florida, USA
Sponsored by IEEE Computer Society
http://conferences.computer.org/scc/2005
Theme: Bridge the Gap between Business Services and IT Services
Services now account for more than half of the U.S. economy. Services
Computing, as a new cross discipline, addresses how to enable IT
technology to help people perform business services more efficiently
and effectively. As we can see, Services Computing currently shapes
the processes of business modeling, business consulting, solution
creation, service delivery, and software architecture design,
development and deployment, monitoring and management.
The 2005 IEEE International Conference on Services Computing (SCC
2005) aims to the topics of bridging the gap between Business Services
and IT Services with a new ground breaking technology suite that
includes Web services and service-oriented architecture (SOA),
business strategy and design, business process integration and
performance management, and utility/grid computing. It is sponsored by
the IEEE Computer Society Technical Committee on Services Computing
and will be co-located with the 2005 IEEE International Conference on
Web Services (ICWS 2005).
The theme of this joint IEEE conference on SERVICES is 'Bridge the Gap
between Business Services and IT Services'. Since Web Services is an
IT technology, ICWS 2005 will put its focus on all aspects of IT
infrastructure services. SCC 2005 concentrates on business services,
business solutions, and the bridging technologies such as Business
Strategy and Design, Business Process Integration and Management, SOA,
and Grid and Utility Computing.
SCC 2004 was held in Shanghai, China, September 15-18, 2004. A total
of 330 papers were submitted to SCC 2004. Submissions were from over
30 countries and regions. 37 were accepted as full research papers, 9
were accepted as short papers, and 50 were accepted as special session
papers.
SCC 2005 has the following major research tracks: Foundations of
Services Computing, Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA), Grid/Utility
Computing, and Business Process Management and Business Integration.

SUBMISSION OF PAPERS:
Authors are invited to submit original, unpublished research papers
that are not being considered in another forum. Manuscripts will be
limited to 8-10 (IEEE Proceeding style) pages and be printed on 10 or
12 size font. Please follow the IEEE Computer Society Press
Proceedings Author Guidelines to prepare your papers. Electronic
submission of manuscripts (in PDF or Word format) is
required. Detailed Instructions for electronic paper submission, panel
proposals, tutorial proposals, and review process can be found at
http://conferences.computer.org/scc/2005/ .
The length of the camera-ready of an accepted paper will be limited to
8 (IEEE style) pages. At least one author of each accepted paper is
required to attend the conference and present the paper. The IEEE SCC
2005 Proceedings will be collected in EI Compendex. The detailed
submission instructions can be found at SCC 2005 web site. The
enhanced version of the selected best papers published in the SCC 2005
will be invited ! to publication in the International Journal of Web
Services Research (JWSR) (by Idea Group) and possibly other related
journals. Some speakers of the keynotes, panels, and tutorials will be
invited to submit articles to extend their presentations for IEEE IT
Professional Magazine.
EVALUATION PROCESS:
All submissions will be evaluated for originality, significance,
clarity, and soundness.
Each paper will be refereed by at least two to three researchers in
the topical area.
BEST STUDENT PAPER AWARDS:
One Best Paper award and 1-3 Best Student Paper Awards will be
presented by SCC 2005. The first author of the best student papers
should be full-time students.
