DESCRIPTION AND OBJECTIVES
-------------------------
The International Conference on Management of Digital EcoSystems (MEDES) aims to develop and bring together a diverse community from academia, research laboratories, and industries interested in exploring the manifold challenges and issues related to resource management of Digital Ecosystems and how current approaches, techniques, and technologies can be evolved and adapted to this end. MEDES'2022 calls for full papers presenting interesting recent results or novel ideas in all areas of Digital EcoSystems. At the same time, the conference calls for short papers presenting interesting and exciting recent results or novel thought-provoking ideas that are not quite ready, and preferably include a system demonstration.

MEDES 2022 will be organized in a Hybrid mode which allows for both on-site paper presentations and online presentations. The on-site part is the main mode of the hybrid conference. The online part is held for those participants who cannot travel to France or cannot get European visa.
