The aim of the Doctoral Symposium on Recent Advances in Information 
Technology (DS-RAIT) is to provide a platform for exchange of ideas 
between early-stage researchers, in Computer Science, PhD students in 
particular. Furthermore, the symposium will provide all participants an 
opportunity to get feedback on their studies from experienced members of 
the IT research community invited to chair all DS-RAIT thematic 
sessions. Therefore, submission of research proposals with limited 
preliminary results is strongly encouraged.
Besides receiving specific advice for their contributions all 
participants will be invited to attend plenary lectures on conducting 
high-quality research studies, excellence in scientific writing and 
issues related to intellectual property in IT research. Authors of the 
two most outstanding submissions will have a possibility to present 
their papers in a form of short plenary lecture.
