-- About FSEN --<br>
<br>
Fundamentals of Software Engineering (FSEN) is an international
conference that aims to bring together researchers, engineers,
developers, and practitioners from academia and industry to present
and discuss their research work in the area of formal methods for
software engineering. Additionally, this conference seeks to
facilitate the transfer of experience, adaptation of methods, and
where possible, foster collaboration among different groups. The
topics of interest cover all aspects of formal methods, especially
those related to advancing the application of formal methods in the
software industry and promoting their integration with practical
engineering techniques. Following the success of the previous FSEN
editions, the next edition of the FSEN conference will take place in
Tehran, Iran, May 3-5, 2023.<br>

-- Paper Submission --<br>
<br>
Authors are invited to submit full papers (up to 15 pages including
references) describing original research, applications and tools; or
short papers (up to 6 pages including references) describing ongoing
research or new ideas that have not yet been fully validated.<br>
Both categories of papers must be submitted electronically in
postscript or PDF using the online submission process via the
Easychair conference system at the following link:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=fsen2023">https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=fsen2023</a><br>
<br>
Contributions must be written in English, should be formatted
according to the Springer LNCS style (LaTeX2e Proceedings Templates)
that can be found at the following link
(<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines">http://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines</a>)
and not exceed the page limit for the category (including figures
and references).<br>
<br>
Each submission will be thoroughly reviewed by at least three
reviewers considering scientific originality, significance,
relevance to the FSEN conference, technical soundness, clarity,
self-containedness and discussion of appropriate related work. <br>
<br>
The reviewers will be asked to rate the submissions and evaluate
whether they can be accepted as:<br>
1) Full paper for the LNCS post-proceedings and conference
pre-proceedings<br>
2) Short paper for the LNCS post-proceedings and conference
pre-proceedings<br>
3) Poster included only in the pre-proceedings<br>
Papers accepted in the first 2 categories will be invited for
presentation at the conference. Posters will be illustrated by the
authors in separate poster sessions. <br>
<br>
Submissions are required to report on original, unpublished work and
should not be submitted simultaneously for publication elsewhere
(cf. IFIP's Author Code of Conduct, see <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.ifip.org/">http://www.ifip.org/</a> under
Publications/Links).<br>
<br>
<br>
-- Proceedings and Special Issue --<br>
<br>
The post-proceedings of FSEN'23 will be published by Springer Verlag
in the LNCS series (to be confirmed). Pre-proceedings, printed
locally by IPM, will be available at the conference. Following the
tradition of FSEN, we plan to have a special issue of the Science of
Computer Programming journal devoted to FSEN'23 (to be confirmed).
After the conference a selection of papers will be invited for this
special issue. The invited papers should be revised and extended and
will undergo a new round of review by an international program
committee. Please see the websites of previous editions of FSEN for
more information on post-proceedings and special issues related to
those editions.<br>
