Organized by:

  FEUP: Faculdade de Engenharia, Universidade do Porto, Portugal ( <http://www.fe.up.pt> www.fe.up.pt)

With the support of:

  ISS: Institute of Service Science, Université de Genève, Switzerland (iss.unige.ch) 

  SSI: Service Science and Innovation, Public Research Centre Henri Tudor, Luxembourg (www.ssi.tudor.lu) 

Since 2010, the IESS conferences provide a forum for the presentation and exchange of research results and practical experiences within the new field of 

Service Science, bringing together researchers and practitioners from many different areas.

Services represent the largest sector of the economy in many nations. Service Science aims to understand and study the conception, design, implementation, 

deployment, maintenance and operation of services, in particular technology based services such as IT services. Service Science represents an 

interdisciplinary approach to systematic innovation in service systems, integrating management, social, legal and engineering aspects to address the 

theoretical and practical aspects of the challenging services industry and of its economy.

Building on previous editions and the growing momentum in this emerging and exciting discipline, IESS is further strengthening its position as an academic 

conference focusing on the exploratory aspects surrounding service science. The goal of IESS is to offer academics, researchers and practitioners of all 

disciplines this exploratory forum to communicate and share results.  The conference programme will feature paper presentations, workshops, and interactive 

panel sessions.

In February 2013 the conference will be held in Porto, Portugal, declared by UNESCO as World Heritage in 1996. Porto is also the most important centre of 

education and research in the North of Portugal. The conference and associated workshops and panels will be held in the campus of FEUP, the School of 

Engineering of the University of Porto, in the heart of the main research and academic district of the city.

CONFERENCE THEME 

ENHANCING SERVICE SYSTEM FUNDAMENTALS AND EXPERIENCES 

Complex multi technology based service systems are being deployed covering most aspects of life in our society. The sustainability of service systems 

involves technical, economic, and social responsibility issues, and therefore its fundamentals need to be better understood. Opportunities for radical 

innovation arise in this environment, and new transdisciplinary exploratory work is deemed essential to address all the challenges being faced. Service 

system value co-creation requires also improved understanding of the experiences that are being designed for the benefit of everyone. Service Science needs 

to explore enhanced methods, approaches and techniques for a more sustainable and inclusive economy and society.

**************************
