Call for Papers
4th Workshop on Continuous Requirements Engineering - CRE'18
https://wwwswt.informatik.uni-rostock.de/CRE18/

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Important Dates:

Paper submission deadline: January 15, 2018

Workshop date: March 19, 2018


Location:

Utrecht, the Netherlands,

In conjunction with the REFSQ 2018 conference https://refsq.org/2018/welcome/

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The goal of the workshop is to support continuous requirements engineering approaches, methods, models, and tools for multi-scale fast changing enterprises and predictable and unpredictable configurations of enterprise networks. Reports about new ideas and experience reports in this context are welcomed and will be presented and discussed. Also welcomed are reports about continuous requirements engineering approaches that not yet have been applied to continuous engineering but have the potential for that. A cross-pollination of experiences in modeling and requirements management is assumed.

There are three types of submissions: position papers, research papers and reports. All types should treat a topic from the workshop themes.
• Position papers (2-6 pages):
Such papers should state the position of the authors regarding any topic of the workshop.

• Reports (5-8 pages):
Experience reports and case studies are expected to be submitted in this category.

• Research papers (5-15 pages):
Research papers should describe innovative approaches.

Publication
Workshop contributions will be published in the joint REFSQ workshop proceedings at CEUR.

Selected extended papers can be published in the Journal Complex Systems Informatics and Modeling Quarterly in a regular or special issue.
