Call For Papers - CFP

The QSIC series of conferences provide a forum to bring together researchers and practitioners working towards improving the quality of software. It focuses on innovative methodologies, techniques, tools, management and applications in this challenging area, and exchange ideas on them.

The preceding conferences in the series were held over four continents, in Hong Kong; Dallas, USA; Braunschweig, Germany; Melbourne, Australia; Beijing, China; Portland, Oregon, USA; Oxford, UK; and Jeju, Korea. Since 2009, IEEE Reliability Society has been one of the sponsors of the conference.

QSIC 2010 will be held in Zhangjiajie, China, an UNESCO World Natural Heritage famous for its magnificent views. It will be a two-day event to be held on July 14−15, 2010.

QSIC 2010 will include the main conference and co-located workshops. IEEE Computer Society Press will publish the conference proceedings consisting of carefully reviewed manuscripts accepted by the program committee.
