CALL FOR PAPERS
Annals
of Software Engineering
An international, archival, peer-reviewed journal which covers all aspects of software
engineering.
Special Volume on
Computational Intelligence in Software Engineering
The Annals of Software Engineering journal seeks articles for a special volume on "Computational Intelligence in Software Engineering".
The constantly evolving technological infrastructure of the modern world presents a great challenge of developing software systems with increasing size and complexity. Software engineers and researchers are striving to meet these and other continuously growing challenges by developing and implementing useful software engineering methodologies. However, despite the introduction of some important and useful paradigms in the software engineering discipline, their technological transfers on a larger scale has been extremely gradual and limited.
The recent emergence of the field of Computational Intelligence (CI) in Software Engineering provides a software development team with an opportunity by taking advantage of the currently developed, documented, and mature CI technologies such as fuzzy logic, artificial neural networks, genetic and artificial intelligence-based computational systems, expert knowledge-based systems, and case-based reasoning. These and other computational intelligence technologies have been used to resolve issues arising from the ever-increasing complexity and size of software systems.
This special volume is focused on the current research trends of introducing and implementing CI techniques to address the various software engineering needs arising during different phases of software development and analysis. This special volume is intended to serve as a comprehensive collection of the state-of-the-art CI technologies in software engineering.
This special volume of Annals of Software Engineering will focus on how CI can be used to assist in all aspects of software engineering. Original papers are solicited that present research results, innovative case studies, actual project experiences, state-of-the-art surveys, and tutorials.
Topics of particular interest on "Computational Intelligence in Software Engineering" include but are not limited to:

Annals of Software Engineering imposes virtually no length limitation on the submitted papers. A papers length is judged with respect to the quality of its content. Submitted papers must not have been previously published or be currently under consideration for publication elsewhere. All papers will be rigorously refereed. The complete manuscript in PDF or postscript format together with contact author information should be submitted to the Editor on or before April 1, 2002.
Submission
Submission of a manuscript to the Annals of Software Engineering journal is a representation that the manuscript (a) has not been previously published, (b) is not currently under consideration for publication elsewhere, and (c) will not be submitted elsewhere until a decision is made regarding its suitability for publication in Annals of Software Engineering. Submission is also the representation that the work has been approved for open publication if performed under an official sponsorship requiring such an approval.
Annals of Software Engineering is published by Kluwer Academic Publishers.
