SOHOMA16

Original papers must be submitted in PDF format here.

The material submitted for presentation at the workshop must be original, not published or being considered elsewhere. The working language is English. The papers are limited to 8 pages formatted in the Springer Book format for "Studies in Computational Intelligence" according to the instructions given at the Springer series "Studies in Computational Intelligence", section Instructions for Authors.

All papers duly presented at the Workshop will be included in the SOHOMA'16 post conference Proceedings publication in special issue of Springer series "Studies in Computational Intelligence".

In addition to the Springer proceedings volume, selected SOHOMA'16 papers will be proposed for special issues of profile journals. The selection will be based upon the quality of the papers edited in the Springer proceedings, the quality of the oral presentations and the novelty, original contributions and technical soundness of the work. These extended papers will be blind-reviewed, which does not mean their automatic acceptance.

Scientists are invited to propose "Special Sessions" on well-defined research subjects in Service Orientation in Holonic and Multi-Agent Manufacturing. A Special Session consists of 4-6 papers submitted by members of groups of professional interests, scientific communities, project teams.

Special Sessions Proposals can be submitted by e-mail at sohoma16@uninova.pt following the template: Special Sessions Proposal Template.

Participants can submit papers for the Special Sessions listed below. Authors interested in submitting their paper(s) for a Special Session should normally upload the manuscript(s) via Easy Chair and afterwards write us an email (sohoma16@uninova.pt) indicating the Special Sessions of interest.
