Industry Track CFP

The ACM / IEEE International Symposium on Empirical Software Engineering and Measurement (ESEM) is the premier conference for empirical software engineering methods and results. A major goal of ESEM is to disseminate results of interest to both researchers and practitioners. ESEM 2014 will be held September 18-19, 2014 in Torino, Italy.

The ESEM Industry track provides practitioners and contributors from the industry with an opportunity to publish experience reports of potential interest to the researcher and practitioner communities. Industry experience reports describe the stories and outcomes (positive or negative) of evaluating or deploying software engineering technologies, ideas, practices, tools, processes, or methods in an industrial setting. The submission should include information on the setting, provide motivation, explain the events leading to the outcomes, including the challenges faced, summarize the outcomes, and conclude with lessons learned, take-away messages, and advice based on the experience described and lessons learned. At least one contributing author must be from industry.

Papers may be between 4 and 8 pages in length. An extensive description of related work or background material is not required. Papers must be written using the ACM Conference Manuscipt Templates. Accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings and included in ACM and IEEE digital libraries. Authors will be able to present and discuss their experiences at the conference.

Submission deadline: May 26, 2014 Extended!
