Call For Papers: New Ideas Track
Goal and scope The FSE 2012 New Ideas track provides researchers with a forum to promote new and original research projects, to seek feedback on novel directions in a research program, and to discover opportunities for new research collaborations. New Ideas submissions are intended to describe a single and well-defined idea at an early stage of investigation. As opposed to regular research papers, New Ideas papers are not intended to serve as a vehicle for the dissemination of research results. Submissions to the New Ideas track should describe research in progress. Authors of contributions to other tracks are welcome to also submit a paper to the New Ideas track if a specific aspect of their research meets the goal of the track. Presentation and publication Submissions to the the New Ideas Track should be a maximum of four pages in the ACM proceedings format. Authors of accepted papers will be invited to present both a brief talk on their research in the New Ideas session and a poster at the conference. At least one author of each accepted paper must register and attend FSE 2012 in order for the paper to be published in the proceedings. Accepted New Ideas papers will be allocated four pages in the main conference proceedings. How to submit All submissions must be in English. Submissions must be in PDF format. Papers must be submitted electronically through the forthcoming New Ideas Track submission site. New Ideas submissions: Must not exceed 4 pages in the ACM proceedings format, including all text, figures, references and appendices Must explicitly answer the following questions in the submission: What is the new idea? Why is it new? What is the single most related paper by the same author(s)? By others? What feedback do the authors expect from the forum? Addressing these questions in explicit, distinct sections is strongly recommended Must not have been previously published, nor be under consideration for publication, elsewhere Review and evaluation criteria Each submission will be reviewed by at least three members of the program committee. The main evaluation criteria will include the demonstrated or argued novelty and originality of the idea, the clarity of the idea's description, the relevance of the idea to the themes of FSE, as well as some preliminary evidence of the feasibility of the idea.
