Submission
All submissions are expected to be original work not published, or in submission, elsewhere, and will be peer-reviewed by at least three members of the program committee for quality, relevance, and novelty. Submissions will only be accepted if the majority of the reviewers give a positive evaluation.Papers can be submitted in the following categories:
- Full research papers (12 pages + 2 extra pages for references) presenting novel research ideas, significant empirical studies, successful industrial applications, or important perspectives.
- Short research papers (8 pages + 2 extra pages for references) sharing industrial experience, challenges, research or technical problems, case studies, raising new ideas, challenges, ongoing research or early research results, and future trends.
After the conference, we will organize post-proceedings of selected and extended papers of workshops that will be published in a Springer LNCS volume (up to 16 pages). Workshop papers submitted for the post-proceedings will undergo through a minor revision cycle where the extensions with respect to the workshop versions will be checked by the reviewers.
Important dates: (all AoE)
- Paper submission: July 1, 2022
- Notification of workshops papers: July 29, 2022
- Workshop papers (LNCS) camera-ready: August 5, 2022
- Workshop: September 19/20, 2022
In 2022, we will select the best papers for publication in a special issue of Journal of Software Engineering for Autonomous Systems (JSEAS). In 2015 it was Information and Software Technology; in 2016, it was the Journal of Systems Architecture; in 2017, it was the e-Informatica Software Engineering Journal; and in 2018 and 2019, it was the special section of the Journal of Automotive Software Engineering (JASE).
