ICSENT 2012, the International Conference on Software Engineering and New Technologies, is the premier software engineering conference, providing a forum for researchers, practitioners and educators to present and discuss the most recent innovations, trends, experiences and issues in the field of software engineering.
We invite submission of original unpublished research reports, work in progress, and reports based on the conference focus areas.
- Regular papers (10 pages) which provide detailed expositions of new research;
- Case studies and Research Tool Demonstration (5 pages).
The Research Tool Demonstration provides a forum for conference participants to use presentations, live demonstrations, and posters to learn about research tools from the software engineering community. We invite practitioners and researchers to submit interesting demos, as part of the conference.
Paper Submission
Submission of papers will be accepted via Easychair in PDF format. Please visit: https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=icsent2012
Follow IEEE guidelines:
http://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html
We plan to have the proceedings published through IEEE and have it available in IEEE Xplore. There are also plans to bring out a special issue in some journal of repute.
In cooperation with IJIST (International Journal of Information Systems and Technologies, some of the best papers from ICSENT’12 will be published in IJIST.
