IJSE 2012 - Principles and Practices of Software Engineering Special Issue of International Journal of Software Engineering (IJSE)

Principles and Practices of Software Engineering
Special Issue of International Journal of Software Engineering (IJSE)
http://www.ijse.org.eg/Call_for_Papers.ASP
The ever-shifting organizational needs, as well as the volatile markets
within which we operate, present various technological challenges. We
require appropriate technologies that increase efficiency in production and
revenue. Consequently, engineering such systems is critical for ensuring
that organizations receive value from such initiatives. The field of
Software Engineering provides the appropriate engineering principles and
practices upon which the development of such technologies hinges. Despite
the various research efforts already shown in this area, many challenges
still remain. Research in principles and practice of software engineering
spans various dimensions. Software engineering is a creative design
activity which must be practiced systematically. New techniques have to be
devised, while existing techniques must be tested in a range of
environments to determine whether and how they are useful and relevant.
This special issue aims at reporting research, innovative techniques, and
practical works conducted in the area of software engineering. The topics
of interest include, but are not limited to:
*
- Development practices and approaches
- Software Development Tools and Infrastructure
- Software Project Management
- Software Process
- Requirements Engineering
- Software Architectures & Design
- Software Security
- Testing & Quality assurance
- Software Economics
- Software Measurement
- Validation and Verification *
