ICGT'10 Doctoral Symposium


An event to be held during ICGT 2010
5th International Conference on Graph Transformation
Enschede (Netherlands), September 29 - October 1, 2010


General Information

The ICGT 2010 Doctoral Symposium will consist of technical sessions held during the ICGT 2010 Conference, dedicated to presentations by PhD students and young researchers who completed their doctoral studies within the past two years.

ICGT 2010 aims to bring together researchers and practitioners interested in the foundations and applications of graph transformation to a variety of areas. A non-exhaustive list of topics of interest can be found on the conference web pages:

Within ICGT 2010, the Doctoral Symposium will provide a unique opportunity for doctoral students and young researchers (having defended their thesis at most two years previously) to interact with established researchers of the graph transformation community and with other students.

The Doctoral Symposium will be held on a date to be determined, during the regular activities of the ICGT 2010 conference.

Presentations for the Doctoral Symposium will be selected by the Program Committee according to originality, significance, and general interest, on the basis of submitted three-pages abstracts. Accepted abstracts, revised according to the comments by the reviewers, will be included in the LNCS proceedings of the ICGT Conference.

After the conference, selected authors of presentations will be invited to submit a full paper for the refereed post-proceedings of the Doctoral Symposium, which will be published as a volume of the Electronic Communications of the EASST (European Association of Software Science and Technology).
