Call for Papers
THIRD SEI CONFERENCE ON SOFTWARE ENGINEERING EDUCATION
PITTSBURGH, PENNSYLVANIA
JULY 17-18, 1989
The SEI Conference on Software Engineering Education is an annual
conference that brings together educators from universities,
industry and government to discuss issues of mutual interest, with
the goal of promoting educational improvements for the emerging
discipline of software engineering.
The program committee invites papers and proposals for panels and
special sessions on all aspects of software engineering education.
We are interested in discussions of successful experiences at any
level (industrial, undergraduate, graduate) and on any pertinent
topic. We are particularly interested in papers and proposals in
the following areas:
- Industry Education Issues: How should in-house education
and training be structured to be most cost-effective?
What is an effective mix of in-house, vendor, university,
and technology-based education and training? How can
education and training be integrated with process groups
or other technology transfer mechanisms?
- Teaching Large Systems Issues: How can concepts of large
software systems be taught within the constraints of the
educational setting? Can the objectives of reuse be
extended from the level of algorithms and data structures
to the realm of large systems architectures? How can we
teach the team cooperation and communication skills
required for building large systems? How should we teach
system integration testing?
- Foundations for Software Maintenance: What disciplines
and principles underlie the skills required for software
understanding and modification? How can these skills be
taught and their importance communicated early in the
curriculum?
- Teaching Issues of Embedded Systems: What are the
foundations and principles of embedded, real-time,
distributed, and concurrent systems? How can these be
taught in a personal computer-based educational
environment?
All papers will be refereed. The proceedings will be published by
Springer-Verlag in its Lecture Notes in Computer Science series.
Authors should submit five copies of complete papers by February
10, 1989. Notification of acceptance or rejection of papers will
be sent March 10, 1989. Final versions of accepted papers in
camera-ready form must be received by April 17, 1989. Authors will
be asked to sign a copyright release form.
Papers, proposals and requests for additional information should be
addressed to:
