of their work. In addition, the conference fosters collaboration and
scientific production between academics, students and the software industry.
CIbSE 2024 will be held in Curitiba, Paraná State, Brazil and will
include invited talks from influential researchers in the Software
Engineering community. CIbSE 2024 will be held alongside three satellite
events: the Doctoral Symposium, the 7th edition of the Ibero-American
Advanced Software Engineering School (EIbAIS) and Industry Talks. The
Doctoral Symposium is organised to discuss the ongoing work of doctoral
theses related to the general area of Software Engineering. EIbAIS
combines lectures and tutorials on current trends in Software
Engineering by renowned speakers. The Industry Talks aim to bring
together academics and practitioners from the local community to discuss
Software Engineering issues in practice. In this edition of CIbSE, it is
also proposed the submission of articles of R&D projects and contracts
with companies, where researchers can describe their current lines of
research with funding from national and international calls, as well as

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
=====================
Authors are invited to submit high quality research papers describing
significant, original and previously unpublished results in Software
Engineering, in any of the official languages of CIbSE: English, Spanish
and Portuguese.
The following article categories are welcome:
**Technical papers (no more than 15 pages): papers describing innovative
research in the topics of interest of the conference. Papers in this
category should describe an original contribution to the topics and
should carefully support claims of novelty with citations to relevant
literature.
Technical papers are evaluated on the basis of originality, strength,
relevance, significance of the contribution, level of validation,
quality of presentation and comparison with related work. When an
article builds on previous work by the author(s), the novelty of the new
contribution should be clearly described with respect to the previous
work. Technical papers should clearly discuss how the results were
validated.
Among the technical papers presented at the conference, a set of the
best papers will be selected for publication in the "Science of Computer
Programming" indexed in the Journal of Citation Report(JCR).
Additionally, the best paper will receive a certificate of recognition.
**Emerging ideas papers (no more than 8 pages): papers describing new
and unconventional approaches that depart from standard practice, on the
topics of interest of the conference. They are intended to describe
clear research ideas that are at an early stage of development.
Papers on emerging ideas will be evaluated primarily on their level of
originality and potential impact on the field with respect to promoting
innovative thinking. Therefore, gaps in the state of the art and the
relevance, correctness and impact of the idea should be accurately
described. While the idea being presented does not need to be fully
validated, a presentation of preliminary results is expected to provide
initial information on the feasibility and impact of the contribution.
**Articles on applied R&D projects or contracts with companies (no more
than 4 pages): these contributions must deal with R&D projects that are
in progress at the time of submission. For these articles the following
information should be included: summary, main objective, beneficiaries
of the proposal, technologies used and results obtained (so far and
expected).
**Poster papers (no more than 2 pages): papers that describe an idea or
initial state of a study, related to the topics of interest of the
conference, and without the need to have obtained tangible results at
the time of submission. The main objective is to enable conference
participants to discuss these ideas with the authors and to contribute
new insights to the work in progress. Accepted papers will be presented
in poster format in a session during which interaction between authors
and conference attendees will take place. In addition, the best poster
will receive a certificate of recognition.
Submission
==========
All papers must be submitted through EasyChair, using PDF format only
(https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=cibse2024). Submissions should
follow the Brazilian Computer Society style for conference papers
(https://www.sbc.org.br/documentos-da-sbc/summary/169-templates-para-artigos-e-capitulos-de-livros/878-modelosparapublicaodeartigos
).
Accepted technical and emerging ideas papers will be included in the
conference proceedings, which will be made available through the Open
Digital Library of the Brazilian Computer Society - SOL
(https://sol.sbc.org.br/index.php/anais) and Curran Associates
(http://www.proceedings.com/), and subsequently indexed in DBLP and
Scopus. Accepted papers on applied R&D projects or contracts with
companies, and posters, will be published through CEUR Proceedings.
At least one author of each accepted article must register before the
deadline for the final version. One registration corresponds to one
paper only. Any author of each accepted paper must submit it personally
or the paper will be excluded from the proceedings. If an author has
more than one accepted paper, it is possible to pay 50% of the
registration fee for the second and subsequent co-authored papers.
Papers that are not within the scope of the conference, do not follow
the formatting guidelines, or have been submitted or published in any
other forum (conference or journal) will be rejected without review. All
other submissions will be reviewed by at least three members of the
Programme Committee.
***Journal First***
Authors of papers on the topics of interest of the conference and
accepted in JCR Q1 or Q2 journals are invited to present their research
work at CIbSE. This provides an opportunity for authors to discuss their
work with the community, as well as to enrich the technical programme of
CIbSE. Presentations of these papers will be included in the CIbSE 2024
programme.
The main evaluation criterion for selecting papers is the description of
original results that are not extensions of previous conference papers.
In addition, the article must have been accepted for publication in the
journal during 2023, and must not have been presented at any other
conference as a journal-first contribution.
At least one author of each selected paper must register before the
submission date of the final version of the paper and present it at the
conference.
Authors interested in submitting journal-first articles to CIbSE 2024
should submit their proposals of no more than one page, in PDF format
via EasyChair (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=cibse2024). The
following information should be provided: (i) title of the article; (ii)
list of authors; (iii) affiliation; (iv) keywords; (v) journal and
information on its impact factor, ranking and quartile (Q1 or Q2); (vi)
DOI; (vii) abstract and; (viii) a short statement on how the work
satisfies the criteria above. . Articles must be written in English,
Portuguese or Spanish.
***Doctoral Symposium***
The Doctoral Symposium aims to disseminate ongoing research by junior
researchers, where a panel of experts will discuss with researchers to
suggest new perspectives and improvements to doctoral theses.
The research submitted can address any of the topics of interest of
CIbSE 2024. We recommend, but do not require, that the research is at an
intermediate stage (~2nd year) so that expert suggestions can be
included in the PhD thesis.
The suggested structure of the articles is as follows:
● Introduction to the field of research and identification of the main
challenges in the field.
● Explicit formulation of the research questions and objectives,
justifying why they were chosen.
● Summary of the current knowledge of the problem domain as well as the
state of existing solutions.
● Outline of the research methodology being applied.
● Introduction of the proposed solution and the results obtained to date.
● Statement of the aspects of the suggested solution that make it
different or better compared to existing approaches.
● Statement of outstanding issues and description of the next steps that
are planned.
● List of references.
Papers for the Doctoral Symposium will be written exclusively by
doctoral students (therefore, the name of the thesis supervisor should
not be included). All papers must be submitted in PDF format via
EasyChair (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=cibse2024). Articles
should be written in English, Portuguese or Spanish, and should not
exceed 8 pages.
Accepted papers will be included in the conference proceedings. Authors
of accepted papers must register before the deadline for the final
version. Papers may be presented in person or online (in person is
recommended), the latter option is recommended. Finally, the best paper
will receive a certificate of recognition.
***EIbAIS***
The Ibero-American Advanced School of Software Engineering (EIbAIS)
represents the CIbSE's initiative to spread the knowledge of Software
Engineering in Ibero-America.
EIbAIS aims to promote a forum for discussion on Software Engineering
and its related technologies and theoretical foundations, through the
participation of professionals, undergraduate and graduate students, and
researchers. The tutorials are given by volunteers committed to
contribute to the CIbSE community and to spread the knowledge of
Software Engineering in Ibero-America.
EIbAIS is organised in two categories of sessions: (i) on the state of
the practice and (ii) on the state of the art.
State of the practice sessions offer discussions on topics of general
interest and often represent local demand. These sessions support the
exchange of knowledge and practical issues with participants, presenting
evidence-based Software Engineering results to the audience. Examples of
state of the art topics include User-Centered Design, DevOps, Internet
of Things, Microservices and Software Engineering for Data Science,
Quantum Software Development, among others.
State of the art sessions offer discussion on emerging topics of
interest and generally represent the perspectives of the Software
Engineering research and innovation community. These sessions are
intended to provide information on current and future Software
Engineering technologies that could represent innovative concepts in the
field. The state-of-the-art topics include the same topics of the
conference.
All participants attending the sessions will receive a certificate of
participation, indicating the sessions, lecturers and contents.
***Industry Talks***
Industry Talks aim to provide practitioners with a means to present and
discuss their current work regarding real-world applications of Software
Engineering. Talks exploring best practices, problems and solutions,
emerging challenges in industry and other topics related to Software
Engineering are welcome. Practitioners and researchers are invited to
work together to explore how Software Engineering processes, methods,
techniques and tools can provide industry with better solutions.
