# ISSRE 2021
For further information on the call for submissions, please see
http://2021.issre.net/Call-for-papers
The International Symposium on Software Reliability Engineering (ISSRE) is
focused on innovative techniques and tools for assessing, predicting, and
improving the reliability, safety, and security of software products. The
32nd edition of ISSRE will be held in Wuhan, China, and will continue to
emphasize scientific methods, industrial relevance, rigorous empirical
validation and shared value of practical tools and experiences as paper
selection criteria.
The research track at ISSRE 2021 is soliciting original, unpublished research
papers in three categories: (1) full research regular (REG) papers,
(2) practical experience reports (PER), and (3) tools and artifact (TAR)
papers. Papers will be assessed with criteria appropriate to each category.
ISSRE looks for original research exploring new scientific ideas,
contributing new evidence to established research directions, or reflecting
on practical experience.
REG papers should describe a novel contribution to reliability of software
systems. Novelty should be argued via concrete evidence and
appropriate positioning within the state of the art. REG papers are also
expected to clearly explain validation process and its limitations.
PER are expected to provide an in-depth exposition of practical experiences
and empirical studies collected through the application of known research
tools and methods related to ISSRE topics. PER need to identify and discuss
relevant lessons learned. The goal of PER is to offer evidence of reduced
risk for future tech transition of the same or similar technology. ISSRE
strongly encourages PERs that combine the efforts of researchers and industry
practitioners. Note that negative results are specifically encouraged, for
example, discussing where or why current research cannot be applied in an
industrially relevant context.
TAR papers should describe a new tool or artifact. Tool-focused TAR papers
must present either a new tool, a new tool component, or novel extensions to
an existing tool. Tool-focused TAR papers should include a description of:
1) the theoretical foundations, 2) the design and implementation concerns,
such as software architecture and core data structures, 3) experience with
realistic case studies and observed advantages over similar tools. Making the
tool publicly available is strongly encouraged to allow continued evaluation
process. Artifact-focused TAR papers should cover 1) a working copy of a
software and 2) experimental data sets.
*****************************************************************************
# Paper Categories
Submissions can be made in one of the following categories.
* REG papers: 10 pages + 2 pages (for references alone).
* PER papers: 10 pages + 2 pages (for references alone).
* TAR papers: 6 - 10 pages (with references).
Papers that exceed the number of pages for that submission category will be
rejected without review.
*****************************************************************************
# Topics of Interest
Topics of interest include development, analysis methods and models
throughout the software development lifecycle, and are not limited to:
* Primary dependability attributes (i.e., security, safety, maintainability)
impacting software reliability
* Secondary dependability attributes (i.e., survivability, resilience,
robustness) impacting software reliability
* Reliability threats, i.e. faults (defects, bugs, etc.), errors, failures
* Reliability means (fault prevention, fault removal, fault
tolerance, fault forecasting)
* Metrics, measurements and threat estimation for reliability prediction and
the interplay with safety/security
* Reliability of software services
* Reliability of open source software
* Reliability of Software as a Service (SaaS)
* Reliability of software dealing with Big Data
* Reliability of model-based and auto-generated software
* Reliability of software in artificial intelligence based software systems
* Reliability of software within specific types of systems (e.g.,
autonomous, adaptive, green and sustainable, mobile systems)
* Reliability of software within specific technological spaces (e.g.,
Internet of Things, Cloud, Semantic Web/Web 3.0, Virtualization, Blockchain)
* Normative/regulatory/ethical spaces pertaining to software reliability
* Societal aspects of software reliability
