CALL FOR PAPERS

The Twenty-Seventh International Conference on Software Engineering and Knowledge Engineering (SEKE 2015) will be held at the Wyndham Pittsburgh University Center, Pittsburgh, USA, from July 6 to July 8, 2015.

The conference aims at bringing together experts in software engineering and knowledge engineering to discuss on relevant results in either software engineering or knowledge engineering or both. Special emphasis will be put on the transference of methods between both domains. Submission of papers and demos are both welcome.

SPECIAL ISSUE OF IJSEKE JOURNAL

Around forty best ranked papers from the conference will be selected for a super-sized special issue of the International Journal of Software Engineering and Knowledge Engineering (IJSEKE) to be published in December 2015 for early dissemination. Papers will go through three rounds of reviews (see detailed review plan) so that those selected for the IJSEKE special issue can be further improved to meet the standard of IJSEKE.
