ISSRE 2011

PLEASE NOTE

We relocated and rescheduled ISSRE 2011 to Hiroshima, Nov 29-Dec 2, 2011.

ISSRE 2011, the 22nd annual International Symposium on Software Reliability Engineering, invites you to attend and contribute to the leading conference in its field.

DESCRIPTION

ISSRE focuses on innovative, high-impact techniques and tools for assessing, predicting, and improving the reliability, safety, and security of software and software-controlled systems. Our central objective is to facilitate knowledge exchange and transfer as well as discussions about concerns, among practitioners and investigators from Academia and Industry. ISSRE emphasizes industrial relevance and rigorous empirical studies, combining them with theoretical excellence across presentations, tutorials, and workshops. Students and new blood are very welcome to introduce their work to an international audience.

ISSRE has grown over the years to become one of the few forums where the technical leadership from both academic institutions and economic players meet to learn from each other. It is typical for ISSRE to have an almost even proportion of Academia and Industry attendance - a rare achievement for any conference. ISSRE spotlights the theory as well as the practice of software-based systems reliability engineering. Submitted papers are reviewed by high-profile program and Industrial committees, looking for originality, soundness, relevance, and applicability. We take special pride in our workshops, which have picked up considerable momentum. The ISSRE workshops on Embedded Systems Reliability and Software Rejuvenation are becoming regulars. We strive to build these communities further and to seed new ones that are vital to cutting-edge topics, for the advancement of software Research and Manufacturing.

SCOPE

The areas that ISSRE covers in papers, fast abstracts, workshops, tutorials, and keynotes, include but are not limited to:
- Reliability, availability, and safety
- Security
