SUBMISSIONS
We solicit three types of submissions: full research papers (up to 7 pages), short papers (up to 4 pages) and industry abstracts (up to 2 pages). Full research papers present original and evaluated research whereas short papers describe novel ideas, identified challenges, and especially experience reports related to the workshop’s theme.
We invite active practitioners to introduce new perspectives from real industry projects by submitting a concise industry abstract of their intended talk.
We encourage you to submit a contribution, both from academia and industry.
All submissions will be peer reviewed and judged on the basis of their clarity, relevance, and interest to the workshop participants.
Paper submissions must be in English and conform to the IEEE Dual Column format.
Papers are to be submitted electronically to the CSE EasyChair paper submission system.
At least one author of each accepted paper is required to attend the workshop and present the paper. Presented papers will be published by IEEE and included in the IEEE Digital Library.
