Introduction
The economic importance of services activities is growing apace. The role of services
and their relationship with other sectors of economic activity and in international trade is an
accepted fact in the more highly developed economies, as well as in countries currently
seeking to consolidate their growth strategies. The burgeoning of services activities and the
increasing interest in the subject by researchers, academics and business practitioners have
been deciding factors for us to meet, present and discuss the range of studies and
experiences concerned to date with services. The Ist Brazilian Symposium on Services
Science is the result. This will take place in Brazilia on 17 - 19 November 2010. The idea is
that this Symposium should serve as a useful forum for representatives of the academic,
government and business sectors committed to the study and promotion of services and
services systems to come together for discussion and experience-sharing. It is hoped that a
permanent organization charged with taking forward the debate on Services Science in Brazil
will emerge from the proposed Symposium.
This initiative also coincides with the interest that has been shown to broaden the
debate to encompass other countries in Latin America and the Caribbean. The Symposium
will also be an opportunity for the holding of the first meeting of the Latin American and
Caribbean Network on Services Research (REDLAS). This Network represents a point of
contact between Latin American and Caribbean researchers dedicated to studying services.
REDLAS is fortunate to have the support of the European Services Research Network
(www.reser.net).
Call for papers
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.
Preferred themes for papers
1. Innovation, quality and productivity
in services
2. Development, modeling and
simulation of new services

public policies and services

software as a service
