The International Conference on Evaluation and Assessment in Software Engineering (EASE) is one of the premier conferences for research related to empirical software engineering. The EASE research track seeks high-quality submissions of technical research papers describing original and unpublished results.

Topics

EASE welcomes papers addressing topics related to evaluating and assessing software products, processes, practices, tools & techniques, including:

    Meta-science (e.g., papers about research methods and methodological issues, whether empirical or conceptual)
    Infrastructure and techniques for conducting empirical studies on software engineering
    Theory development, operationalization, testing, and application
    Applications of evaluation and assessment in specific contexts, such as:
        Software Requirements
        Software Architecture
        Data-Driven Software Engineering
        Global Software Engineering
        Software Design
        Software Construction
        Software Testing
        Software Operations
        DevOps and Continuous Delivery
        Software Maintenance
        Software Configuration Management
        Software Engineering Management
        Software Engineering Models and Methods
        Software Engineering Process (e.g., agile, hybrid)
        Software Quality
        AI-Based Software Development
    Human factors and behavioral aspects of Software Engineering
    Software development practices and process improvement
    Sustainability in Software Engineering
    Inter- or multi-disciplinary studies intersecting software engineering
    Artificial Intelligence for Software Engineering
    Ethics in Software Engineering

EASE also welcomes studies with negative findings or non-significant results.
