Scope and Motivation
Aiming to become a reference event on Software Engineering in
Ibero-America, CIbSE draws on the experience of 13 successful
editions of IDEAS to promote high-quality scientific research in
Spanish, Portuguese, and English.
CIbSE 2011 will take place in Rio de Janeiro, Brasil. It is
organized by PUC-Rio. The event will include research paper
presentations, tutorials, doctoral symposium, workshops,
keynote talks by renowned iberoamerican researchers. CIbSE’s
official languages are: Spanish, Portuguese, and English.

􏰀 automatic software generation
􏰀 case studies and experimental software engineering
􏰀 formal methods applied to software engineering
􏰀 integration with human-computer interaction
􏰀 languages, methods, processes, and tools
􏰀 model-based engineering
􏰀 ontologies applied to software engineering
􏰀 peer-to-peer (P2P) systems
􏰀 proof, verification, and validation
􏰀 quality, measurement, and assessment of products and
processes
􏰀 requirements engineering (through WER 2011)
􏰀 reverse engineering and software system modernization
􏰀 software and service-oriented architectures
􏰀 software development paradigms
􏰀 software evolution and maintenance
􏰀 software product families and variablity
􏰀 software reuse
􏰀 Web engineering and Web services

Submissions and Publication
We invite contributions in the form of papers, tutorials, and
doctoral work related to CIbSE’s conference themes.
Long papers should not exceed 14 pages in Springer-
Verlag’s LNCS format (http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/
authors.html). Submissions should be sent via the EasyChair
submission system (http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf
=cibse2011). They will be reviewed according to their relevance,
originality, technical quality, and adequacy to the conference
topics.These submissions may be accepted for presentation as
long papers, short papers, or posters, whose final quality will be
supervised by the program committee. We are working to publish
the best CIbSE 2011 papers in an international journal special
issue. In addition, the best conference paper will receive an
award.
Tutorial proposals should not exceed 6 pages, and should
include the following information: title, abstract (up to 200 words),
keywords, presenters (name, e-mail, affiliation, address, and
brief biography), goals of tutorial and targeted audience. Tutorial
propostas should be sent to the tutorials chair, according to the
instructions provided in the CIbSE 2011 website.
The doctoral symposium aims to bring together doctorate
students to promote discussions and the exchange of ideas in a
constructive and critiquing atmosphere. Proposals should not
exceed 6 pages and should include a clear description of the
problem addressed in your doctoral work, the state-of-the-art, the
research methodology, the project plan, and preliminary results,
highlighting the contributions of the proposed solution. Proposals
should be sent to the doctoral symposium chair, according to the
instructions provided in the CIbSE 2011 website.
