[September 15, 2020] CALL FOR PARTICIPATION OF THE INAGURAL IEEE SERVICES HACKATHON EVENT: We’re pleased to announce the Inaugural IEEE SERVICES Hackathon event and invite interested parties to participate.
IEEE Services Hackathon is an event collocated with the 2020 IEEE World Congress on Services (SERVICES 2020), and is sponsored by the IEEE Computer Society. At the IEEE Services Hackathon, we want services computing to feel relatable to students who are about to embark on their professional career, and show how services computing can be used to help people improve the quality of life. The Hackathon provides a platform for enthusiastic and driven students from a diverse range of backgrounds to collaborate and bring innovative ideas within the services computing industry to life, while providing them with an opportunity to engage with industry mentors.
As a team, you will have the opportunity to engage and collaborate with other students who come from different backgrounds, as well as be able to demonstrate and hone your programming, presentation and analytical skills. You will also be paired with a mentor. At the end of the Hackathon, you will also be provided with a certificate of participation. We are also inviting young professionals to volunteer as mentors at this event. As a mentor, you will be assigned to a team to help them on their projects. Mentors must be available on the dates of the Hackathon.
For more details, please check out https://ieeeservices.github.io and we look forward to seeing you all there.

[April 24, 2020] Author/Speaker Information and Author Registration Information has been posted.
[March 21, 2020] The IEEE SERVICES Congress community is sorry to report the very sad news that our dear friend Professor Michael Goul, Steering Committee member and Congress Symposia General Chair, passed away on March 20, 2020 after a short battle with cancer. We have lost a great colleague to many, a dear friend to all of us, a fine scholar from the academia, and a key organizer for the IEEE World Congress on Services.
[March 5, 2020] The organizers of the 2020 IEEE World Congress on Services remain steadfast in advancing our discipline by continuing to engage an international community of scholars committed to the highest standards of research quality. Because of the unusual situation in China this year, the organizers opted to relax the onsite presentation policy while re-committing to high quality review processes consistent with the Congress’ excellent reputation. This decision balances our ongoing global engagement strategy with a practical remedy to deal with an unusual situation.
As of March 5, the Steering Committee has approved the final plan for the 2020 IEEE World Congress on Services. The Congress will be still held in Beijing, but the dates have been moved to October 19-23, 2020. The program committee for each conference will continue its operation for the current batch of submissions according to the current schedule:
Normal paper submission due: February 13 March 5, 2020 (5:00 am, UTC)
Final notification to authors: April 6 April 20, 2020
Camera ready manuscripts due: April 20 May 4, 2020
Congress dates: July 7-11 July 20-24, 2020October 19-23, 2020
Because the move created a 7-month gap before the Congress is actually held, the Steering Committee decided to accommodate authors with one more submission window as follows:
Normal paper submission re-opened for the final window: April 27, 2020
Normal paper submission for the final window due: June 5, 2020 (5:00 am UTC)
Final notification for the final window to authors: July 20, 2020 (for all papers submitted in the final window due June 5)
Camera ready manuscript due: August 7, 2020
Congress Date: October 19-23, 2020
Papers accepted within this final window will also be included in the same 2020 proceedings.
Due to this final move the Congress has issued a newly revised presentation policy for authors and presenters affected by the travel issues.
If you have any questions or need additional information, please email us for further details: ieeecs.services@gmail.com
[February 17, 2020] The Congress has issued a revised presentation policy for authors and presenters affected by travel issues. If you have any questions or need additional information, please email us for further details: ieeecs.services@gmail.com

[September 20, 2019] All General Chairs and Program Chairs for the co-located conferences have been appointed.
[July 11, 2019] During the onsite Steering Committee meeting in Milan, a major reorganization plan was approved. In 2020, The number of co-located conferences will be reduced to allow more focused effort to fully develop a more coherent set of world-class professional events and leave space for incorporating more emerging and critical subjects for the services community.
[July 11, 2019] During the onsite Steering Committee meeting in Milan, the 2020 date for IEEE World Congress on Services was decided. It will be held from July 7-11 in Beijing, China.
[June 1, 2019] Professors Elisa Bertino and Hong Mei were appointed to serve the 2020 Congress General Chairs, and Professors Ernesto Damiani and Zhi Jin were appointed the Program Chairs-in-Chief for 2020.
