October 15, 2016

A great recognition for the FBK-DAS research unit, headed by Annapaola Marconi, that in October 2016 won both the "Best Demo Award" at the 14th International conference on service oriented computing, held in Banff (Alberta - CA).

ICSOC is the top international forum for academics, industry researchers, developers, and practitioners to report and share groundbreaking work in service-oriented computing. ICSOC fosters cross-community scientific excellence by gathering experts from various disciplines, such as business process management, distributed systems, computer networks, wireless and mobile computing, cloud computing, cyber physical systems, networking, scientific workflows, services science, data science, management science, and software engineering.

ICSOC 2016 brought together scientists, engineers, and practitioners from multiple disciplines to focus on service-oriented, cloud-based, innovative enterprises ready for the 21st century.

The demo titled DeMOCAS: Domain Objects for Service-based Collective Adaptive Systems by Antonio Bucchiarone, Martina De Sanctis, Annapaola Marconi, and Alberto Martinelli was selected as one of the best.
