[ecoop-info] CFP: AIRE 2014 : First International Workshop on Artificial Intelligence for Requirements Engineering @ RE 2014

[Rachel Harrison]

******** We have extended the deadline for the First International Workshop
on Artificial Intelligence for Requirements Engineering
(AIRE) to June 9th 2014. 

******** First International Workshop on Artificial Intelligence for
Requirements Engineering watch this space: http://re.cs.depaul.edu/ai4re/
 
@RE'14, Karlskrona, Sweden - http://webhotel.bth.se/re14/
 
-------- Call for Papers -------
 
The purpose of this workshop is to explore synergies between Artificial
Intelligence and Requirements Engineering in order to identify complex RE
problems that could benefit from the application of AI techniques. Given the
current sparsity of AI techniques applied within the RE research community,
this workshop will include a keynote that lays the foundations for
challenges in our domain as well as interactive presentations from RE
researchers who are in early stages of adopting AI techniques.
 
Three types of papers will be solicited. These include:
 
- Full Research Papers:
Maximum length 8 pages, describing the application and evaluation of AI
techniques to an RE problem, surveying the use of AI in a particular
RE-related field, or outlining a vision for AI in their field. Such papers
will be peer-reviewed and accepted papers will appear in the IEEE digital
library.
- Position Statements
Maximum length 4 pages, describing a preliminary idea with initial
validation. Such papers will be peer-reviewed and accepted papers will
appear in the IEEE digital library.
- Presentation Only
Workshop attendees may opt to submit a short abstract (Maximum length 2
pages) describing an idea or position. Such abstracts will not be published,
but submitters will receive presentation slots at the workshop. This option
is idea for somebody who is at the initial idea stage of a project, or
somebody who sees the potential for adopting AI techniques and simply wishes
to get feedback.
 
Any material that is not released via the IEEE Digital library will be made
available to workshop participants only as a protected, downloadable file.
 
Formatting and Submission Guidelines
Submissions must be written in English and formatted according to the IEEE
formatting instructions. All submissions must be in PDF format. Please visit
