CALL FOR PAPERS

Special Issue on Advances in Software Engineering with Soft-Computing

During the last few years, a number of software engineering
researchers are focusing on applying soft-computing and computational
intelligence techniques to their research. In software engineering,
problems such as planning and decision making, finding patterns for
defective modules, effort estimation, testing and test case
generation, knowledge extraction, etc. can be reformulated using a set
of techniques under the umbrella of soft-computing. This includes
searching and optimization techniques such as genetic algorithms,
meta-heuristics, data mining, fuzzy logic, Bayesian networks, etc. All
these techniques, already extensively used in other areas, are
incrementally being applied in software engineering. This special
issue aims at providing an overview of works on computational
intelligence techniques to the software engineering field including:

• Studies, applications and tools to extract information from Software 
repositories
• System Dynamics applied to Soft Eng.
• Visualisation in software projects
• Software testing with data-mining or meta-heuristic techniques
• Project management with data-mining or meta-heuristic techniques
• Design of software engineering repositories
• Data quality in software repositories (noise, unbalanced datasets, 
outliers, etc.)
• Planning and scheduling
• Software mining
• Etc.

Important dates
• Submission Deadline: December 31, 2009
• Acceptance Notice: January 31, 2010
• Final Manuscript: February 21, 2010
