Call for PhD Forum Submissions
The 43rd IEEE Symposium on Reliable Distributed Systems (SRDS 2024) will hold a PhD Forum for PhD/doctoral and graduate students in early to medium stages towards their PhD/doctoral degrees.
The PhD Forum provides an opportunity for graduate students working in research areas related to reliable distributed systems to present their problem statement, research methods and planned contributions, and to receive high-quality feedback and guidance from established researchers and other graduate students joining the forum. The forum consists of two poster sessions and we also plan short presentation slots in the main conference program.
NEW FOR 2024: AWARD
All Ph.D. Forum attending students presenting at the poster sessions and at the short presentations in the main track will be considered for a new "SRDS Ph.D. Forum Award".
Evaluation criteria will include quality of the presentation and quality of the posters.
