12th International Conference on Exploring Service Science

IESS 2.2 2022


Computing Systems Databases & Information Systems Information Theory



According to the IESS tradition, IESS 2.2 will cover major areas of research and education related to service science and service innovation, including new emerging research trends. In the IESS conferences, the digital part of services constitutes a main component of Service Science exploration.
Contributions grounded in multi-disciplinary approaches to enable transdisciplinary services, are particularly encouraged. In this case, they will explore traditional disciplines, like IT, Justice, Medicine and Health, Economy, private and public administration, Engineering, in order to rebuild some of their foundations towards enabling the creation of transdisciplinary services.
Because of the large field covered by Service Science, the IESS 2.2 is composed of several tracks, which are dedicated to a special theme. So, the authors have to choose one of them to submit their paper, unless they decide to submit it in the traditional IESS general topics.
This conference IESS 2.2 has a special theme of Service Innovation Roadmaps and Responsible Entities Learning, which appears really relevant presently at the economic/industrial levels, and furthermore also at the academic, research, education levels. Research contributions to this theme will become indispensable today for a deep understanding of the ongoing mutations in the entities and the Society, for the establishment of resilient, sustainable, viable, inclusive policies of progression and of responsible entities learning processes.
