Aims and Topics

The Objective of the Software Engineering (SE) Track is to provide an open forum for discussing a wide range of experiences and ideas for developing high-quality software applications more effectively and efficiently. The SE track examines both macroscopic and microscopic aspects of in-depth theories, tools, and practices in the field of software engineering. It provides a platform for academic researchers and industry practitioners to seek collaboration opportunities, and identify the state-of-art technologies, which are vital to the software engineering community.
