SEKE '97

The Ninth International Conference on Software Engineering and Knowledge Engineering

June 18-20, 1997

Madrid (Spain)

Sponsored by:

• Knowledge Systems Institute,
• Universidad Politécnica de Madrid,
• University of Pittsburgh.

In collaboration with:

• IEEE
• IEEE Computer Society
• ACM
• SIGSOFT
• Asociación Española para la AI
• Federación Española de Sociedades de Informática (Spanish Member of IFIP)

SCOPE

The Conference on Software Engineering and Knowledge Engineering has for eight years been providing a unique, centralized, forum for academic and industrial researchers and practitioners to discuss the application of either software engineering methods in knowledge engineering or knowledge-based techniques in software engineering. Preference will be given to papers that emphasize on the transference of methods among both engineerings; however, outstanding papers on software engineering or knowledge engineering alone are also being solicited.

SEKE'97 will feature four half-day tutorials on June 19, followed by a three-day technical program consisting of parallel tracks which will include paper sessions, panels, and workshops. An exhibition of software engineering and knowledge engineering tools is planned. Paper presentations will be approximately 20 minutes each with 5-10 minutes for questions and discussion. Submissions of proposals to organize a session, a panel or a tutorial are also being solicited.
