*** FIRST CALL FOR PAPERS AND OTHER CONTRIBUTIONS ***
14th International Conference on Product Focused Software Development
and Process Improvement (PROFES 2013)
June 12-14, 2013, Paphos, Cyprus
http://www.profes-conferences.org
CONFERENCE BACKGROUND AND TOPICS
PROFES is the premier forum for practitioners, researchers, and
educators to present and discuss experiences, ideas, innovations, as
well as concerns related to software process and product quality
improvement. PROFES 2013 will be the 14th gathering of the PROFES
community and will take place in Azia Resort Hotel in Paphos, Cyprus (http://www.aziaresort.com
).
The technical program will feature keynote talks, research papers, and
experience reports on the most relevant topics related to process
diversity management. Empirical studies (i.e. experiments, industrial
experiences, cases studies, etc.) are welcome. In addition, we will
host a number of workshops and tutorials. We will also host a Doctoral
Symposium. Details about the program can be found on the conference
website.
The proceedings of PROFES 2013 will (most likely) be published by
Springer in the Lecture Notes on Computer Science (LNCS) series (http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs
) (final approval pending).
Traditionally, PROFES has provided topics, which are up-to-date,
important, and interesting. To ensure that PROFES will retain its high
standards and that it will keep focusing on the most relevant research
issues, we are looking for original research on software engineering
techniques, methods, and technologies for product-focused software
development and process improvement as well as their practical
application in an industrial setting. The topics of interest include,
but are not restricted to, the following:
* Product quality models for software, systems, and services
* Project management techniques
* Service orientation and cloud
* Software development for Cyber Physical Systems
* Evidence-Based Software Engineering
* Software Process Improvement (SPI)
* Agile and lean processes
* Global software development
* Outsourcing, near-shoring, and off-shoring
* Process modeling, management, and assessment
* Processes for COTS and OSS-based development
* Service engineering processes
* Software business models
* Industrial experiences and case studies on the topics above
SUBMISSION OF TECHNICAL PAPERS AND EXPERIENCE REPORTS
All submitted papers will undergo a rigorous peer review process.
Papers will be selected based on originality, quality, soundness and
relevance. All contributions must be original, not published, accepted
or submitted for publication elsewhere. All papers should be submitted
in PDF format through Easychair (https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=profes2013
). The maximum length of the research and experience report papers is
15 pages. Submitted papers must conform to the Springer LNCS layout
rules (http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-7-72376-0).
SUBMISSION OF OTHER CONTRIBUTIONS
The submission details for short papers, posters, PhD descriptions and
proposals for workshops and tutorials, will soon be available at the
conference website.
