Dear Moderator of the “caml-list@inria.fr” mailing list,

 

Please read through before taking your decision on the enclosed posting. I
am a professor at the Lisbon New University in Portugal and I am currently
serving the community as Program Chair of the QUATIC’2010 conference. I came
across your mailing list in SEWORLD which I also subscribe. If your list
appeared in SEWORLD that is because your members have an interest in
Computer Science in general, and probably in Software Engineering, in
particular. The QUATIC conference series (this is the 7th edition) is
organized in association with the IEEE and deals mainly with how QUALITY is
being dealt in several areas of Computer Science research. Since QUALITY is
a crosscutting concern in all research areas, it is very likely that the
members of the “caml-list@inria.frcaml-list@inria.fr” mailing list will
enjoy receiving the enclosed call for papers.

 

Thank you for reading this through. I sincerely hope you authorize this
posting.

 

Best regards

 

Fernando

advanced methods, techniques and tools for supporting quality approaches to
ICT engineering and management. Practitioners and researchers are encouraged
to exchange ideas and approaches on how to adopt a quality culture in ICT
process and product improvement and to provide practical studies in varying
contexts.

 

As in the  <http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?arnumber=04335221>

To foster the dissemination of best practices in industry, to allow a lively
discussion of hot topics, to have hands-on contact with new tools, to gather
around informal discussion groups (aka
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birds_of_a_Feather_(computing)>
birds-of-a-feather) on subjects suggested by the conference participants
themselves and also to allow conference sponsors to spread their message, we
will have a dedicated
<http://paginas.fe.up.pt/~quatic2010/doku.php?id=industrial_track>
Industrial Track, that will run in parallel with the Main Track.

 

IMPORTANT DATES:

Paper submissions:      11 April 2010

Authors’ notification:  5 May 2010

Camera-ready:          6 June 2010

 

Note: Although the submission of the abstract is not mandatory, authors will
be able to get some preliminary feedback from the PC committee if their
proposed contents fall outside the scope of the conference thematic tracks.
