8th International Joint Conference on Software Technologies
http://www.icsoft.org/
July 29 - 31, 2013
Reykjavik, Iceland
Co-organized by: Reykjavik University
Sponsored by: INSTICC
INSTICC is Member of: OMG and WfMC
ICSOFT 2013 welcomes the submission of position papers whose deadline is set for April 10.
A position paper presents an arguable opinion about an issue. The goal of a position paper is to convince the audience that your opinion is valid and worth listening to, without the need to present completed research work and/or validated results. It is, nevertheless, important to support your argument with evidence to ensure the validity of your claims. A position paper may be a short report and discussion of ideas, facts, situations, methods, procedures or results of scientific research (bibliographic, experimental, theoretical, or other) focused on one of the conference topics.
Please check further details about position papers at http://www.icsoft.org/GuidelinesTemplates.aspx
The ICSOFT 2013 joint conference is composed by ICSOFT-PT (International Conference on Software Paradigm Trends - http://www.icsoft-pt.org) and ICSOFT-EA (International Conference on Software Engineering and Applications - http://www.icsoft-ea.org).
Submitted papers will be subject to a double-blind review process. All accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings, under an ISBN reference, on paper and on CD-ROM support. The proceedings will be submitted for indexation by Thomson Reuters Conference Proceedings Citation Index (ISI), INSPEC, DBLP and EI (Elsevier Index).
All papers presented at the conference venue will be available at the SCITEPRESS Digital Library (http://www.scitepress.org/DigitalLibrary/). SCITEPRESS is a member of CrossRef  (http://www.crossref.org/).
