CALL FOR PAPERS


*** NEW *** The format of the submissions changed. All submissions should be formatted according to ACM authoring guidelines found at http://www.acm.org/ sigs/publications/proceedings-templates.

*** IMPORTANT*** All submissions in all tracks must use structured abstract. Please, use these guidelines for structured abstract.

We invite the submission of high quality articles describing original and unpublished results of research work in all areas of Software Engineering. We encourage submissions of results with strong empirical foundations, although conceptual work with strong theoretical foundations is also welcome.

We welcome submissions addressing topics across the full spectrum of software engineering research. Topics encompass any relevant aspect of empirical studies of software engineering, and include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Experiments and Quasi-experiments
  • Survey Research
  • Case studies
  • Ethnographic and Observational studies
  • Action research
  • Simulation Based Studies
  • Replications of empirical studies
  • Methodological issues and practices
  • Systematic reviews, mapping studies, and meta-analysis

We solicit submissions in the following tracks:

  • Technical Research (Full) Papers
  • Short Papers
  • New Ideas and Research Proposals

FULL PAPERS SUBMISSIONS


We invite high quality submissions of technical research papers describing original and unpublished results of software engineering research with strong empirical foundations. All papers must be submitted through the Web-based submission system (https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ease2013), and using PDF format only (please select 'track' "EASE 2013"). Papers are limited to 12 pages, must be written in English, and be formatted according to the ACM authoring guidelines (http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/ proceedings-templates). Any papers which exceed 12 pages, or are outside the scope of the conference, or do not follow the formatting guidelines will be rejected without review. At least one author of accepted full papers must register by the camera-ready deadline.

SHORT PAPERS SUBMISSIONS


This track provides an opportunity for researchers and practitioners to promote current work, research, practices, experiences, and issues related to empirical software engineering that are not mature enough to be submitted as full papers. All short papers must be submitted through the Web-based submission system (https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ease2013), and using PDF format only (please select 'track' "Short Papers"). Papers are limited to 6 pages, must be written in English, and be formatted according to the ACM authoring guidelines (http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings- templates). Any papers which exceed 6 pages, or are outside the scope of the conference, or do not follow the formatting guidelines will be rejected without review. At least one author of accepted short papers must register by the camera-ready deadline.

NEW IDEAS AND RESEARCH PROPOSALS SUBMISSIONS


The goal of this track is to provide researchers with a forum for presenting and getting early feedback on novel research ideas, promising work, and research at the early stages of design and development that has not yet been fully evaluated. All New Ideas and Research Proposals papers must be submitted through the Web-based submission system (https://www.easychair.org/conferences/? conf=ease2013), and using PDF format only (please select 'track' "New Ideas"). Papers are limited to 4 pages, must be written in English, and be formatted according to the ACM authoring guidelines (http://www.acm.org/sigs/ publications/proceedings-templates). Any papers which exceed 4 pages, or are outside the scope of the conference, or do not follow the formatting guidelines will be rejected without review. At least one author of accepted New Ideas and Research Proposals papers must register by the camera-ready deadline.

The presentation of accepted papers will be in poster format in a special session during the Conference. Posters will remain in display through the entire conference, providing opportunity for further presentation and discussion. Poster Sessions separate themselves from the Short Paper Sessions by allowing authors the ability to get immediate, personal feedback from conference attendees during the conference. Posters also provide conference attendees an opportunity to see emerging work in the field in a more relaxed setting.

PROCEEDINGS AND JOURNAL SPECIAL SECTION


*** NEW *** All accepted papers in all three tracks will be included in the Conference Proceedings which will be publish by ACM as part of the International Conference Proceedings Series (ICPS) and indexed in the ACM Digital Library.

A selection of best full papers will be invited to submit extended versions for tentative publication in a Special Section of the journal of Information and Software Technology published by Elsevier http://www.elsevier.com/locate/ infsof.
