17th International Conference on Software Engineering and Data Engineering

SEDE-2008 Call for Papers
17th International Conference
on Software Engineering and Data Engineering
June 30 - July 2, 2008
Los Angeles, California USA
Sponsored by the International Society for Computers and their Applications (ISCA)

The 17th SEDE Conference seeks high quality submissions in all areas of Software Engineering (SE) and Data Engineering (DE). This year the conference puts special emphasis on the impact of ubiquitous and pervasive computing on software engineering and data engineering. Applied case studies will report on exemplary solutions deployed in industries like aerospace, telecommunications and military. In the SE section particular emphasis will be placed on techniques for software specification and design of software/hardware components and the modeling of system architectures. In the DE section, the emphasis this year is on high performance algorithms that learn patterns from large volumes of data, learn and predict events, adapt to situations, rationalize, provide autonomous control, and assist in executive decision-making. The conference also includes a best paper award given for a paper presented at the conference. The conference will cover a broad range of topics including, but not limited to:

  • Software Engineering
  • Software Modeling, Development, & Maintenance
  • Software requirements engineering
  • Software Verification and Model Checking
  • Re-engineering and Reverse Engineering
  • AI and Knowledge-based software engineering

Submission Procedures

Papers will be accepted ONLY BY ELECTRONIC SUBMISSION in PDF format. Please include a cover page containing title, author's name(s), address, affiliation, email address, telephone number and topic area. In cases of multiple authors, all correspondence will be sent to the first author unless otherwise requested. Authors must submit a full paper (no more than 15 double spaced pages) by March 22, 2008. All submissions must be uploaded through the submission site: https://secure.myhostadvantage.com/V0015065FC/con-reg/default.asp?ConID=72. If you encounter any difficulties during submission or if you require further information, please contact: isca@ipass.net or one of the co-chairs. The submitted manuscript should closely reflect the final paper as it will appear in the proceedings, which will be a maximum of 6 pages (+2 pages with additional page fees) in ISCA format: http://www.isca-hq.org/sample-isca-manuscript-format.pdf.
