*Submission deadline:* Feb 29, 2016



*About the Workshop and Topics*

Software Engineering Processes and Applications (SEPA: 2015) is aimed to
provide a forum to scientists/researchers/engineers/practitioners and
academicians to share their ideas, experiences and researches in the field
of software engineering process and applications. SEPA 2015 covers all the
frontier issues and trends in the modern software development processes. It
includes process models, development process  for  different software
platforms (e.g. social networks, cloud), process for adaptive, dependable,
embedded,  systems, agile development, software engineering practices,
requirements, system and design engineering including architectural design,
component level design, formal methods, software modeling, testing
strategies and tactics, process and product metrics, Web Engineering,
project management, risk management, and configuration management. SEPA
also invite papers for the development process of the software/software
systems in application areas e.g. agriculture, aviation industry, business,
cyber-crime, education, government, military etc.

SEPA invites you to submit theme papers that describe original and
significant contribution in all above-mentioned area of software
engineering processes. The paper submitted to SEPA 2016 must not be
submitted elsewhere either in conference or journal and should be 12 - 16
pages (LNCS style). Papers selected after peer review will be included in
the Lecture Notes in Computer Science published by Springer (only after
completing registration) and presented orally at the conference.

*Publication*

All contributions will be reviewed by international program committee
members and judged on their quality and relevance. The accepted papers for
SEPA 2016 will be published in Lecture Notes in Computer Science as a book
series of Computational Science and Its Applications: ICCSA. Please note
that one of the authors of the accepted paper must be register and supposed
to present the paper in the conference (virtual presentation is also
possible for some cases). The extended version of selected papers will also
be invited for the publication in a reputed International Journal.


*Submission*

Please submit your paper through ICCSA 2016 conference web site.
Submission site: http://ess.iccsa.org/cgi-bin/login.py

While, submitting to conference site, please select the track of your
submission "Eight Int Software Engineering Processes and Applications (SEPA
2016)".

*Special Issues SEPA 2016*

In several countries the conference papers are not considered in evaluation
of academic performances. In this point of view, we have decided to publish
the extended version of all presented papers in SEPA in special issues of
several international journals. The best papers will be selected for an ISI
SCIE indexed journal. The papers will also be selected for  International
Journal of Software Science and Computational Intelligence (IJSSCI:
Published by IGI global),  International Journal of Open Source Software
and Processes (IJOSSP) (IGI Global, USA) and *International Journal of
Human Capital Information(IGI Global) with the condition that the papers
should fall under the aim and scope of the mentioned journals. Remaining *
papers will be accommodated in an International journal: Covenant Journal
of Informatics and Communication Technology (an Official Journal of
Covenant University of Technology). We are highly thankful to the
Management of all these journals for accepting the special issues.


*Important Dates*

Abstract and Full Paper submission: October 30, 2015 – February, 29 2016

Notification of Acceptance and Early-bird Registration starts: April 10,
2016

Submission deadline/Registration for the final version of the papers: May
8, 2016
