*****************************************************************************

The Workshop on Requirements Engineering 2022 is now in its twentieth-fifth
edition (Silver Jubilee!). This series of workshops on the area started in
1998 as a meeting of the Ibero-American requirements engineering community.
However, since then, it has attracted attention from researchers and
practitioners from other parts of the world. The WER format promotes
discussion and knowledge exchange between the academy and industry members.
As in the last editions, this one will also feature invited lectures from
well-known researchers and practitioners and tutorials. This edition will
introduce a track for journal manuscript presentations. WER 2022 invites
authors of papers on the topics of interest of the conference and accepted
in journals to present their research at WER. This is an opportunity for
the authors to discuss their work in order to obtain feedback and improve
their research.



*TOPICS OF INTEREST*



- Requirements elicitation, analysis, and documentation, management,
traceability, prioritization, validation, verification, and negotiation;

- Requirements engineering education and training;

- Requirements engineering for specific software development paradigms,
such as the agent-driven, aspect-driven, model-driven, or service-driven;

- Requirements engineering for specific fields, like safety-critical,
web-based, or mobile applications systems;

- Requirements engineering in agile methodologies;

- Requirements specification languages, methods, processes, and tools;

- Model-driven software engineering

- Regulatory compliance.



* The topics of interest are not exhaustive listed



*SUBMISSION GUIDELINES*

Submissions must be written in Portuguese, Spanish or English. They must be
formatted according to the LNCS page format.

All accepted papers will be published with Open Access through the
WERpapers repository.



Please submit your work in PDF format via EasyChair:

WER 2022 invites submission in the field of Requirements Engineering as
part of the following tracks:



· REGULAR TRACK (WER-RT)

· TUTORIAL TRACK (WER-TT)

· MASTER’s AND DOCTORAL TRACK (WER-MDT)

· SOFTWARE REQUIREMENT TOOLS TRACK (WER-SRTT)

· JOURNAL FIRST TRACK  (WER-JFT) *- NEW!*



*TRACKS DESCRIPTION*



*REGULAR TRACK (WER-RT)*

Papers presenting original results on research, teaching and industrial
viewpoints on all aspects of Requirements Engineering are welcome. The
selection process will consider applicability and relevance to Requirements
Engineering, originality, and clarity.

The paper should not exceed 14 pages according to the LNCS format.



*TUTORIAL TRACK (WER-TT)*

The proposal for a 3-hour tutorial should not exceed two pages, formatted
according to the LNCS page format.



*MASTER’s AND DOCTORAL TRACK (WER-MDT)*

The paper should not exceed 7 pages of content for Master's work and 10
pages of content for Doctoral work, according to the LNCS page format. We
recommend although it is not compulsory, that the research be at an
intermediate stage so that experts’ suggestions could be included in the
MSc and PhD work.

The works will receive feedback from the Program Committee with questions
and suggestions about its content. The author should use these comments in
the preparation of the paper's final version.  Selected works must be
presented by students during the MDT. On this occasion, they will receive
opinions and constructive criticism from a Guest Panel, composed of
researchers in the field of Requirements Engineering, as well as the
audience.



*SOFTWARE REQUIREMENT TOOLS TRACK (WER-SRTT)*

Submissions for the Software Requirements Tool track must include a paper
and a demo video with audio comments. The paper must have at most 10 pages,
formatted according to the LNCS paper format.



*JOURNAL FIRST TRACK  (WER-JFT) - NEW!*

The Journal-First Track at WER 2022  welcomes submissions from authors of
top peer reviewed journal papers that address the topics of interest of the
workshop. This offers an opportunity for the authors to discuss their work
with the community as well as to enrich the technical program of WER.
Presentations of journal-first papers will be included into WER 2022
Regular Track.

A submission to the WER 2022 Journal-First Track must be a journal paper
accepted or published no earlier than September 1, 2020. The paper must
report original results that are not extensions of previous conference
papers. The paper must not have been presented at and is not under
consideration for, journal-first programs of other conferences. At least
one author per selected submission must register and attend the workshop to
present it.
