ISSRE 2010 Will be held in San Jose, CA. We have several paper categories, with different deadlines. The first deadline is for the Research Papers. The other categories are Industry Papers, Fast Abstracts, Student Papers, etc. These will be announced shortly.

Research Paper Abstract Submission: May 2010

The 21st annual International Symposium on Software Reliability Engineering (ISSRE 2010) is focused on innovative techniques and tools for assessing, predicting, and improving the reliability, safety, and security of software products. ISSRE also emphasizes industrial relevance, rigorous empirical studies and experience reports.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

• Reliability, availability, and safety of software systems
• Validation and verification, testing
• Software quality
• Software security
• Fault tolerance, survivability, and resilience of software systems
• Systems (hardware + software) reliability engineering
• Services reliability engineering
• Open source software reliability engineering
• Metrics and measurements, estimation, prediction of quality/reliability
• Supporting tools and automation
• Industry best practices
• Empirical studies of any of the above topics

Submission: ISSRE 2010 is soliciting original, unpublished research papers in two categories: (1) regular papers and (2) practical experience reports. The length is limited to 10 pages IEEE style. All papers must be submitted through the web-based submission system in PDF format.

Format: Papers must be written in English, and be formatted according to the IEEE Computer Society Format Guidelines. Papers that exceed the page limits specified above, are outside the scope of the symposium, or do not follow the formatting guidelines will be rejected without review.
