=================================================

The SEBD 2023 Doctoral Consortium will take place in a dedicated session during the 31st Italian Symposium on Advanced Database Systems (SEBD 2023), Galzignano Terme, Padova (Italy), July 02-05, 2023, http://sebd2023.dei.unipd.it/.

The goal is to provide a forum for PhD candidates to present their ongoing research and receive feedback from renowned and experienced members of the research community. The Consortium fosters a collaborative environment, encouraging constructive discussions and sharing of ideas. It will be an excellent opportunity for developing person-to-person networks to the benefit of the PhD students in their future careers – as well as of the community.

Submissions from students who are in the early stages of their research should provide a clear description of the problem to be addressed and the planned methodology. Submissions from students who are in the middle or final stages of their PhD research should clearly indicate the contributions made to date and future work directions.

Each doctoral symposium paper must be single-authored by a current PhD student or a PhD student who submitted the thesis between September and December 2022. The paper should be written in English and must be 6-7 pages long, including selected references. Submissions must be formatted in PDF, prepared in CEUR-ART Column 1 Style (http://ceur-ws.org/Vol-XXX/CEURART.zip), and submitted electronically via the submission system: https://cmt3.research.microsoft.com/SEBD2023/

Submissions will be reviewed by the Doctoral Consortium Program Committee (appointed by the Doctoral Consortium Chairs). All papers will be reviewed with respect to the overall presentation quality, the potential for the future impact of the research on the field, and the expected benefit to the other doctoral students attending the conference. The accepted papers will be published as part of the SEBD 2023 proceedings on WS-CEUR.org and indexed in Scopus, DBLP and Google Scholar.
