ICSSP 2013 - International Conference on Software and Systems Process 2013 (ICSSP)

Software and systems development takes place in a dynamic context of frequently changing technologies, and limited resources. Development teams worldwide are under ever-increasing pressure to deliver software, systems and services more quickly and with higher levels of quality. At the same time, global competition is forcing development organizations to cut costs by rationalizing processes, outsourcing part or all of their activities, reusing existing software in new or modified applications and evolving existing systems to meet new needs, whilst still minimizing the risk of projects failing to deliver. To address these difficulties, new or modified processes are emerging including lean and agile methods, plan-based product line development, and stronger integration with existing processes. This new ICSSP conference series is the successor to the past ICSP conference series, widening the ICSP scope from a focus on software process to a focus on the larger issues relating to systems research and practice. For ICSSP 2013, submissions addressing process support for developing software, systems and services in a systems engineering context are of particular interest.
