Meeting Description:
ProDoc
DocEng
Doctoral Consortium at the ACM Symposium on
Document Engineering
http://www.doceng2014.org/prodoc-doc
For the second time, the ACM Symposium on
Document Engineering will feature a doctoral
consortium, called ProDoc
DocEng.
PhD students present their dissertation project
and will get feedback from a panel of senior
researchers as well as from the general
audience.
ProDoc
DocEng is intended to provide
constructive criticism and help PhD students in
formulating their research question, deciding
about methods and approaches to use, and
creating further ideas. It is a good place to
learn about how to conduct a dissertation
project and to learn about leading edge
research, the results of which might be
presented at one of the next Symposia.
Participants of ProDoc
DocEng register for DocEng 2014 and
will thus be able to attend all sessions of the
Symposium.
Call for Submissions
Submission Deadline: June 1, 2014 (24:00
CEST).
Notification of Acceptance: June 30, 2014.
ProDoc
DocEng will take place during the
ACM Symposium. Each participant will be
allocated 10 minutes for presentation, followed
feedback and questions. There will be no
publication for ProDoc
DocEng.
You are not required to have an accepted
paper/poster/demo for DocEng 2014 to be
