In them, plenary lectures were given, round tables and presentations of oral or written communications (poster) were made by PhD students from all branches of knowledge.

The work of Beatriz Gómez, entitled "dFogIT, the IT Governance framework in Public Organizations", points out the need to implement an IT governance framework through which top managers of any organization can measure the performance of their technologies. Specifically, the dFogIT Framework (Detailed Framework of Governance for IT) strengthens the principles of good corporate governance and contributes to its implementation. For her part, the work of Belén Bermejo, entitled "What is the cost of virtualization?", shows the need to reduce power consumption in cloud computing systems. The goal is to find out how virtualization affects cloud systems in terms of power consumption and performance as well as demonstrate whether or not the virtualized system is more efficient than the traditional one.
