The Ph.D. Forum at FDL 2024 will be a poster session giving Ph.D. students the
opportunity to present their ongoing research to various experts from industry
and academia operating in languages, tools, and techniques for hardware and
software system development. During the poster session, a panel of senior
faculties and researchers from the industry will provide the selected student
with valuable feedback about their ongoing research.
The forum can also help the students establish contacts with second reviewers
or to enter the job market.
Application to the Ph.D. Forum is open to students at any stage of their
doctoral studies and researchers (e.g., postdocs) who recently completed
their Ph.D.
Students wishing to participate in the Ph.D. Forum must submit a two-page
extended abstract describing their ongoing research. The abstract should also
include the name and affiliation. The submission should be authored by the
student alone. That is, supervisors of the student may give feedback, but it
should be a single-author submission. A scientific committee will evaluate the
abstracts. The main criteria for assessing the abstracts will be the adherence
of the presented research to the conference's topics to provide presenters with
high-quality feedback.
Accepted extended abstracts will not be part of the formal IEEE proceedings,
but all abstracts will be distributed electronically to the conference
participants during the conference. Hence, the extended abstract is not counted
as a formal publication and can later be submitted to another conference or
journal. The authors are expected to present a poster at the Ph.D. Forum session
at FDL 2024.
