ISSTA '14: International Symposium on Software Testing and Analysis

ISSTA is the leading research symposium in software testing and analysis, bringing together academics, industrial researchers, and practitioners to exchange new ideas, problems, and experience on how to analyze and test software systems. ISSTA 2014 will be held in Hilton San Jose, Bay Area, California on July 21-26, 2014.

Technical Program

Authors are invited to submit technical papers describing original research in testing or analysis of computer software. Papers describing theoretical or empirical research, new techniques, or in-depth case studies of testing and analysis methods and tools are welcome. Submissions must be original and should not have been published previously or be under consideration for publication while being evaluated for this symposium.

Workshops

Organizers are invited to submit proposals for full-day and half-day workshop on topics related to software testing and analysis. Proposals should include a description of the theme and scope of the workshop, including its relevance to the field of software testing and analysis. The proposal should also provide information about the intended number of participants, the workshop format and the background of the organizers (including relevant past experience on organizing workshops). Proposals may be up to 2 pages in ACM conference format.

Technical Paper Submission Guidelines

Technical papers must be prepared in ACM conference format and must not exceed 10 pages (including figures and appendices but NOT including references). That is, any pages after the tenth must contain only references. All submissions must be in English. Submit your paper via the paper submission website. Submissions that do not adhere to these guidelines or that violate formatting will be declined without review.

Tool Demonstrations

This track provides an opportunity for researchers, educators, practitioners, and software tool vendors to present their experiences, challenges, and solutions in software analysis and testing using live presentations of new tools and prototypes as well as interactive results and data sets. We invite new and innovative research tool demonstrations that show early implementations of research concepts as well as mature prototypes and tools demonstrating advances in usability, scalability, and applicability to new problem domains.
