Since 1997, the International Conference on Evaluation and Assessment in Software Engineering (EASE) has been a forum for knowledge sharing about issues related to empirical software engineering and their application in software development practice. In a workshop-like atmosphere, researchers presented and discussed the latest results of empirical and evaluation studies covering a wide range of topics in software engineering.

EASE 2013 will continue the tradition of the conference in offering a dynamic environment for interaction, discussion, and cooperation among participants. The conference will offer tracks about empirically assessed research results, practical applications and evaluations of technology, new ideas and research proposals.

HIGHLIGHTS OF EASE 2013:

• Three tracks: Full Research Papers, Short Papers, and New Ideas and Research Proposals;
• Best-papers awards for each track;
• Best-reviewers awards.
