The theme of the 2010 World Congress on Services (SERVICES 2010) is
"modernization of the services industry". SERVICES 2010 supports and further explores the science and technology of modernizing services industries using latest methods and technologies such as as Services Computing, which has been formally promoted by IEEE Computer Society since
2003. From a technology perspective, Services Computing has become the foundational
discipline for the emerging modern services industry.
The first Joint Conference on SERVICES includes the 2005 International
Conference on Web Services (ICWS 2005) and the the 2005 International Conference on Services
Computing (SCC 2005), which were held in July 2005 in Orlando, Florida, USA. The
second Joint Conference on SERVICES includes the 2006 International Conference on Web
Services (ICWS 2006) and the the 2006 International Conference on Services Computing
(SCC 2006), which were held in September 2006 in Chicago, IL, USA. In 2007, the joint
conference on Services formally became the 2007 IEEE First Congress on Services (SERVICES
2007), which was held in July 2007 in Salt Lake City, Utah, USA. The 2008 IEEE Second and
Third Congress on Services (SERVICES-I 2008 and SERVICES-II 2008) were co-located with the
2008 International Conference on Services Computing (SCC 2008) in July 2008 in
Honolulu, Hawaii, USA as well as the 2008 International Conference on Web Services (ICWS 2008)
in September 2008 in Beijing in China. In 2009, the Fourth World Congress on Services
(SERVICES-I 2009) was co-located with IEEE 2009 International Conference on Web Services (ICWS
2009) held in July 2009 in Los Angeles, USA. The Fifth World Congress on Services
(SERVICES-II 2009) was co-located with the 2009 IEEE International Conference on Services
Computing (SCC 2009) held in September 2009 in Bangalore, India.
In 2010, the Sixth IEEE World Congress on Services (SERVICES 2010) will be
held in July 2009 in Miami, Florida, USA. SERVICES 2010 tries to attract researchers,

Services University
"Services University" (servicesuniversity.org) was launched at the 2007
Congress on Services (SERVICES 2007) to help teach Services Computing discipline in a systematic
way. A regional leaders community is being formed to support this worldwide "Services
University" program, which is sposnored by Services Society. Services Society is technically
sponsored by the IEEE Technical Committee on Services Computing , IBM Research, SAP and other
professional and industry sponsors. In 2010, the Summer School on Services Computing will be
offered in the Services University program.
2010 Education Methodology Summit on Services Computing
The Education Methodology Summit on Services Computing brings educators and
practitioners around the world together to share their experiences in Services related
education, and builds consensus on the core of Services Computing education, the knowledge areas
and education methodologies. The Summit will focus on pedagogical implications of Services
education and its role in overall Services Computing Curriculum Initiative (SCCI). The
accepted papers will be published in the Proceedings of the 2010 IEEE Sixth World Congress on
Services (SERVICES 2010) as a special section.
2010 SOA Industry Summit
The 2010 SOA Industry Summit encourages industry people to submit
presentations and two-page papers instead of 8-page research reports. The accepted papers will be
published in the Proceedings of the 2010 IEEE Sixth World Congress on Services (SERVICES 2010) as a
special section.
2010 SERVICES Workshops
SERVICES 2009 will include a set of workshops and symposiums focusing on
various themes of modernizing services industry. The accepted papers will be published in the Proceedings
of the 2010 IEEE Sixth World Congress on Services (SERVICES 2010) as a special section.

(SERVICES 2010) as a special section for SOA standards.
Paper Submission and Review Process
Please use the submission page to find the right tracks and events to submit your papers.
All submitted manuscripts will be peer-reviewed by at least 3 program
committee members. Please note that the same paper should NOT be submitted to other conferences or events
simultaneously. Such duplicate submissions will be rejected from all conferences without review.
Submitted manuscripts will be limited to 8 (IEEE Proceedings style) pages
and required to be formatted using the IEEE Proceedings template. Electronic submission of manuscripts
(in PDF or Word format) is required. Detailed instructions for electronic paper preparation and
submission, panel proposals, tutorial proposals, and review process can be found at
www.servicescongress.org
. At least one
author of each accepted paper is required to register to the conference and present
the paper.
Only the accepted and presented papers will appear in the CD-ROM version and
online version of the proceedings of the IEEE 2010 World Congress on Services (SERVICES 2010) ,
which will be published by the IEEE Computer Society Press. Extended versions of selected best papers
published in the SERVICES 2010 will be invited for potential publication in the International Journal
of Web Services Research (JWSR), the International Journal of Business Process Integration and
Management (IJBPIM), and IEEE Transactions on Services Computing (TSC). JWSR is included in EI Compendex
and indexed in SCI-E. According to Thomson Scientific, JWSR is listed in the 2008 Journal Citation
Report with an Impact Factor of 1.200. The journal ranks #47 of 99 in the Computer Science,
Information Systems and ranks #37 of 86 in Computer Science, Software Engineering.
Paper Review Policy
IEEE Policy and professional ethics requires that referees treat the
contents of papers under review as privileged information not to be disclosed to others before publication.
It is expected that no one with access to a paper under review will make any inappropriate use of
the special knowledge, which that access provides. Contents of abstracts submitted to conference
program committees should be regarded as privileged as well, and handled in the same manner. The
Conference Publications Chair shall ensure that referees adhere to this practice. Organizers of IEEE
conferences are expected to provide an appropriate forum for the oral presentation and discussion of all
accepted papers. An author, in offering a paper for presentation at an IEEE conference, or
accepting an invitation to present a paper, is expected to be present at the meeting to deliver the
paper. In the event that circumstances unknown at the time of submission of a paper preclude its
presentation by an author, the program chair should be informed on time, and appropriate substitute
arrangements should be made. In some cases it may help reduce no-shows for the Conference to require
advance registration together with the submission of the final manuscript.
