History: Doctoral Symposium 2010

Source of version: 2

!!Session Goals

The WikiSym 2010 Doctoral Symposium aims to offer PhD. students an unparalleled opportunity to present their ongoing working lines on wikis and open collaboration research to the scientific community.

The main goal of the consortium is to offer students valuable feedback from scholars and other attendees to the session, so that students can envision new, added-value contributions to their current research venue. In the same way, it also offers a perfect environment for the exchange of information, methodologies, practical experiences and advice that may help PhD. students on their way, unleashing potential interactions and opportunities for collaboration.

Students close to their dissertation completion can submit their work and will discuss it in the forum. Students beginning their research are especially invited to attend.

!!Structure for submissions

Submitters should send a PDF manuscript, summarizing in no more than 3 pages their current/prospective research line. The structure and content of this manuscript is free, as it may vary depending on the background level of the submitter.

Nontheless, at least it should state, clearly:
*Introduction: summarizing the main objective(s) of their PhD. work, or a brief recap of the main goals targeted in their dissertation.
*Central topic of the dissertation/research work, and area of interest (e.g.: wikis, indutrial application, open communities, open publishing, FLOSS development, etc.).
*Methodology/working area: a brief description of the proposed methodology to carry out these research objectives (in case this has been already identified/developed), or a sketch of possible alternatives to pursue these goals.
*A list of previous publications (alternatively, submitted works under review or planned works to be carried out next up).
*Interesting feedback/collaboration opportunities that would offer significant improvement for their ongoing research work.
