https://2020.acsos.org/https://twitter.com/ACSOSconf************************************************The 
goal of the IEEE International Conference on Autonomic Computing and 
Self-Organizing Systems (ACSOS) is to provide a forum for sharing the 
latest research results, ideas and experiences in autonomic computing, 
self-adaptation and self-organization. ACSOS was founded in 2020 as a 
merger of the IEEE International Conference on Autonomic Computing 
(ICAC) and the IEEE International Conference on Self-Adaptive and 
Self-Organizing Systems (SASO). For more information about the merger, 
as well as up-to-date news, see https://2020.acsos.org/news/ or follow 
us at https://twitter.com/ACSOSconf!*** Call for Participation 
****Registration is now open for IEEE ACSOS 2020! * Due to the ongoing

Science Foundation of the United States, Chalmers University of 
Technology, and the Technical Committee on the Internet of the IEEE 
Computer Society (IEEE-CS TCI), funds are available to support doctoral 
students to participate in ACSOS 2020 conference. Doctoral students from 
the world are encouraged to apply for the student registration grant to 
cover the registration cost of the conference. Students from 
underrepresented groups, including women and minorities (African 
Americans/Blacks, Hispanic Americans, American Indians, Alaska Natives, 
Native Hawaiians, Native Pacific Islanders, and persons from 
economically disadvantaged backgrounds) are especially welcomed to apply 
in order to promote the Broadening Participation in Computing (BPC) 
effort from NSF.Important dates:- Deadline for applications for student 
registration grants: 24th July- Notification of grant decisions: 31st
