The 24th IEEE International Symposium on Software Reliability Engineering (ISSRE 2013) is focused on innovative techniques and tools for assessing, predicting, and improving the reliability, safety, and security of software products. ISSRE also emphasizes industrial relevance, rigorous empirical studies and experience reports. This year's theme is Mobile Everywhere. We encourage papers on the topic of dependability and reliability of mobile devices and applications. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

Reliability, availability, and safety of software systems
Validation and verification, testing
Software quality
Software security
Fault tolerance, survivability, and resilience of software systems
Systems (hardware + software) reliability engineering
Services reliability engineering
Open source software reliability engineering
Metrics and measurements, estimation, prediction of quality/reliability
Supporting tools and automation
Industry best practices
Empirical studies of any of the above topics

Submission: ISSRE 2013 is soliciting original, unpublished research papers in two categories: (1) regular papers and (2) practical experience reports. The length is limited to 10 pages IEEE style. All papers must be submitted through the web-based submission system in PDF format.


Format: Papers must be written in English, and be formatted according to the IEEE Computer Society Format Guidelines. Papers that exceed the page limits specified above, are outside the scope of the symposium, or do not follow the formatting guidelines will be rejected without review.
