Call for Research Papers
We invite high-quality submissions describing original and unpublished results of theoretical, empirical, conceptual, and experimental software engineering research. We also welcome multi-disciplinary work at the interface between software engineering and other related topics, such as, but not restricted to, artificial intelligence, human computer interaction, programming languages, and systems engineering. Contributions should describe innovative and significant original research relevant to ESEC/FSE. Submissions of papers describing groundbreaking approaches to emerging problems will also be considered. Submissions that facilitate reproducibility by using available data sets or making the described tools publicly available are especially encouraged. Papers submitted for consideration should not have been published elsewhere and should not be under review or submitted for review elsewhere during the duration of consideration.
TOPICS OF INTEREST
We are interested in submissions from both industry and academia on all topics related to software engineering. These include, but are not limited to:
Components, services, and middleware
Configuration management, deployment and operation • Development environments and tools
Distributed and outsourced development
Distributed, mobile, and pervasive software
Embedded and real-time software
Empirical studies and Metrics
