SEKE'96

S E K E '9 6 Eighth International Conference on Software Engineering and Knowledge Engineering June 20-22, 1996, Lake Tahoe, California, USA ********************************************************************** Sponsored by: Knowledge Systems Institute (Founder and Organizer) University of Pittsburgh Scope --------- The main theme of this conference is the interplay between software engineering and knowledge engineering: how knowledge engineering methods can assist the software engineer and how software engineering techniques can be applied in knowledge engineering. To this end, SEKE'96 aims to bring together academic and industrial researchers and software developers from many countries to exchange ideas and results. Preference will be given to papers that emphasize the main theme, but outstanding papers on software engineering or knowledge engineering alone are also solicited. SEKE '96 will feature four half-day tutorials on June 19, followed by a three-day technical program consisting of parallel tracks which will include paper sessions, panels, and workshops. Tool demos also are planned. Paper presentations will be approximately 20 minutes each with 5-10 minutes for questions and discussion. Suggested Topics of Interest -------------------- - Knowledge engineering in software engineering - Software engineering in knowledge engineering - Software process models - Requirements elicitation - Formal methods - Visual specification and software visualization techniques - Reverse software engineering - Software maintenance and reuse - Software reliability - Design and evaluation of CASE tools - Specification and design of multimedia systems - New languages for software and/or knowledge engineering Paper Submissions --------------------- Original papers on the above topics including software engineering and knowledge engineering are invited. These must not exceed 22 double-spaced pages (including 200-word abstract, figures and references); longer papers will not be refereed. An additional cover page should include title, authors, complete contact information, and four or five keywords. Please submit four copies of the paper to: Joseph E.
