9th European Software Engineering Conference (ESEC)
and
11th ACM SIGSOFT International Symposium on the Foundations of Software Engineering (FSE-11)

1 - 5 September 2003
Helsinki, Finland

email: esecfse@cs.helsinki.fi

ESEC/FSE 2003 will bring together researchers and practitioners of software engineering to report new innovative research results and exchange experiences related to both traditional and emerging areas in software development. In addition to the technical program, ESEC/FSE 2003 will include a program of tutorials and workshops on current hot topics in software engineering.

We invite submission of technical papers that report results of theoretical, empirical, and experimental work, as well as experience with technology transition.

Topics of interest. We encourage submissions in any field of software engineering, including, but not limited to:

  • Software Process and Workflow
  • Requirements Engineering
  • Design
  • Software Architectures, Patterns, and Frameworks
  • Specification and Verification
  • Testing and Test Tools
  • Software Analysis and Model Checking
  • Maintenance, Evolution, Re-/Reverse Engineering
  • Software Engineering Tools and Environments
  • Software Configuration Management
  • Component-Based Software Engineering
  • Software Reliability Engineering
  • Generic Programming and Software Reuse
  • Safety and Security
  • Software Metrics
  • Interface Technologies
  • Distributed / Web-Based / Internet-Scale Software Engineering

Submission. Paper submissions will be made electronically via the Web. The CyberChair service is already up an running at http://esecfse.di.univaq.it. Both an abstract and the full paper must be submitted together by the submission deadline. People without Web access must make advance arrangements with the Program Chair by email at least one week before the submission deadline. Papers must not exceed ten (10) 8.5"x11" single spaced pages using a 10-point or larger font. Accepted papers must be in the ACM proceedings format and must be accompanied by a signed ACM copyright release form.

Evaluation. Paper submissions will be reviewed by the program committee for originality, significance, soundness, and quality of presentation. Papers must clearly present an original contribution to the state-of-the-art. Experience papers are welcome, but they must clearly present general lessons learned that would be of interest and benefit to a broad audience of both researchers and practitioners. Papers must describe work that has not been submitted to or presented at another forum.
