CFP: 1st Brazilian Symposium on Services Science-SBCS 2010

Call for papers (full text in English)
Services science is a multidisciplinary field which brings together the different areas
of knowledge focused on the study of services. These include, inter alia, engineering,
administration, economics, design and the social sciences. In this respect we hope that the Brazilian Symposium on Services Science will attract papers from authors working in the different areas of expertise concerned with the study of services activities. Initially, authors of such papers are invited to send summaries of papers for evaluation. Authors whose summaries are accepted by the evaluators will be invited to submit complete versions of their papers for presentation during the Symposium. Publication of selected papers in their complete versions is not obligatory and authors may simply agree to their summaries being published.
