*** Last Call for Special Track Proposals *** 10th European Conference On Service-Oriented And Cloud Computing (ESOCC 2023) October 24-26, 2023, Golden Bay Beach Hotel, Larnaca, Cyprus https://cyprusconferences.org/esocc2023/ AIM AND SCOPE The European Conference on Service-Oriented and Cloud Computing (ESOCC) is the premier conference on advances in the state of the art and practice of Service-Oriented Computing and Cloud Computing in Europe. The main objectives of this conference are to facilitate the exchange between researchers and practitioners in the areas of Service-oriented Computing and Cloud Computing and to foster future collaborations in Europe and beyond. ESOCC 2023 will host Special Tracks as part of its program. Special Tracks provide a space where ESOCC participants can discuss, e.g., topics relevant to Service-Oriented and Cloud Computing even if not explicitly mentioned in ESOCC’s topics of interest (cf. https://cyprusconferences.org/esocc2023/call-for-papers/), early-stage research ideas and/or results, or demonstrate industry-ready tools and research prototypes. Special Tracks may be driven by research interests, needs from specific application domains, or aim at bringing together practitioners and researchers from the area of Service-Oriented and Cloud Computing. Proposals for special tracks should indicate the title of the Special Track, its aims and scope (150-300 words), the Special Track chair(s), and the tentative members of the track’s  PC. Please email your proposals as a PDF file to the PC chairs of ESOCC 2023, Florian Rademacher (florian.rademacher at fh-dortmund.de) and Jacopo Soldani (jacopo.soldani at unipi.it). Special Tracks will be selected for ESOCC 2023 using a lightweight review process. IMPORTANT DATES • Special Track Proposal Submission: February 26th, 2023 (AoE) • Notification of Acceptance: March 5th, 2023 (AoE) ORGANISATIONAL INFORMATION Chairs of accepted Special Tracks can devise a Call for Papers for their track, which will be published on ESOCC 2023 website, together with the provided information on the track (title, aims and scope, PC). The Call for Papers for their track will then be disseminated alongside that of ESOCC, and submissions will be handled through the EasyChair of ESOCC, which will include a special track link.  Papers accepted for Special Tracks will be included in the main conference proceedings of ESOCC 2023, published by Springer in the LNCS series. The best papers accepted in the Special Tracks will be eligible for consideration to be invited to submit extended versions for a Journal Special Issue to be published by Springer Computing. Special Track chairs, presenters, and participants will be required to register through the ESOCC 2023 registration page. In case of any questions related to the Special Tracks, please do not hesitate to contact the Program Chairs. ORGANISATION General Chair • George A.
