PREFACE
This volume of CEUR-WS proceedings contains all accepted papers of the Doctoral Consortium, held
in conjunction with the 35th International Conference on Advanced Information Systems Engineering
(CAiSE 2023). This edition of CAiSE was hosted by San Jorge University and held in the Congress
Palace of Zaragoza, Spain, between June 12th and 16th, 2023. Following the tradition of the CAiSE
conference, it was once again a venue for innovative and rigorous research across the whole spectrum
of Information Systems Engineering. This year’s theme was cyber-human systems.
Its international Doctoral Consortium has a long-standing tradition of providing a forum for early-
stage researchers working on foundations, techniques, tools and applications in the Information Systems
Engineering field. The consortium offers them a supportive and safe environment to network with
likeminded students, share their research plans, and receive constructive feedback from well-established
scholars in the community. Moreover, the Doctoral Consortium provides the opportunity as well to
explore and reflect upon a broader spectrum of topics, from research-centric questions, like the choice
of appropriate research methodologies, to career-related questions.
The CAiSE 2023 Doctoral Consortium received a total of 10 submissions, all of which have been
reviewed by two senior researchers acting as mentors in the Consortium. 7 papers could eventually be
accepted for presentation during the event and for inclusion in the proceedings. We take special pride
in the high acceptance rate of 70% as it reflects once again the openness and welcoming nature of the
consortium to early-stage researchers. The timely and relevant feedback provided during the review
phase to the invited PhD candidates allowed them to revise their submission, but also to effectively
prepare themselves for their presentations and discussions on-site.
Over the course of three sessions, the PhD students then gave their presentations and discussed their
research with the assigned mentors. Here, they received direct feedback, advice, and recommendations
to further improve their overall PhD research plans. Lively discussions in the larger round of
participants complemented each discussion and allowed all participating candidates to gain further
insights on topics, research challenges, and strategies going beyond their own PhD topic.
The second part of the Doctoral Consortium concluded with a keynote given by Professor Xavier
Franch from the Polytechnic University of Catalonia (UPC) on the topic of “This Crazy Little Thing
Called PhD”. Here, he reflected upon challenges and pitfalls, but also upon opportunities along the
journey of doing a PhD in the larger field of Software Engineering. His reflections were deeply rooted
in his profound experiences as researcher and supervisor alike, and he provided the audience with food
for thoughts and key take-aways for their own PhD journey.
We would like to conclude by expressing our utmost sincere gratitude to all participating researchers
for their presentations as well as to all mentors who were involved in the reviewing process and who
served as discussants during the on-site presentations. We are confident and trust that all candidates
will have a successful continuation of their PhD project and we hope that they could not only receive
beneficial advice for their research, but that they could also use the opportunity to become part of the
international CAiSE community. Finally, we would like to thank the CAiSE 2023 general chairs,
Professor Carlos Cetina from San Jorge University and Professor Oscar Pastor from the Polytechnic
University of Valencia for collegially supporting the organization of the Doctoral Consortium.
