Call for Papers
The 2015 Asia Pacific Requirements Engineering Symposium (APRES 2015)
Wuhan, China, 19-20 Oct 2015
www.apres2015.org
Theme: Requirements Engineering for Big Data Applications
Following its success in New Zealand, the Second Edition of the Asia Pacific
Requirements Engineering Symposium (APRES 2015) will be held at Wuhan
University, in Wuhan City, Hubei Province, China. Wuhan is a beautiful historical
city, sits in central China, with the Yangzi River running across the city landscape.
The importance of developing and following effective requirements engineering
practices has long been recognised by researchers and practitioners alike, especially
when facing latest advancements in socio-technological needs in various industrial
sectors, such as, ecommerce, manufacturing and healthcare, this year, we hope to
concentrate our discussion on RE for Big Data Applications. Requirements
Engineering (RE) as an established discipline of research and practice in software
and systems development has established an RE community worldwide. According
to the growing interest in RE research and practice, the APRES symposia is to
develop and expand the RE research and practice community specifically in the Asia
Pacific region and to foster collaborations among local researchers and practitioners
in Asia and Oceania Area. We also welcome participants and presentations from
other parts of the world.
We invite submissions on all aspects of Requirements Engineering. In particular,
those papers that present novel ideas, methods, tools, and techniques for improving
and enhancing RE products, processes and practises are most welcome. We are also
interested in reflections on current industrial RE practices and also encourage
researchers and practitioners from fields that is cross-cutting with RE such as
Business Analysis, Software Engineering, Information Systems, Data and Systems
Engineering, Service Sciences, Human Computer Interaction, Social Sciences, and
Management to join the forum.
Structure: The two-day event will include:



Keynote talks
Research track sessions, accepted research papers will be presented
Industry track sessions, tool demos, case studies will be presented

Invited presentations based on a substantial body of previously published
work with special relevance to Industry
Submissions:
Papers submitted to the APRES should contain original contributions. APRES
international program committee will review and select the papers to be presented.
The proceedings of the first Asia Pacific Requirements Engineering Symposium
(APRES 2015) will be published by the Springer as a volume of Communications in
Computer and Information Science (CCIS). CCIS is abstracted/indexed in DBLP,
Google Scholar, EI-Compendex, Mathematical Reviews, SCImago, Scopus. CCIS
volumes are also submitted for the inclusion in ISI Proceedings.
The authors are advised to apply Springer conference paper templates for
formatting their papers, which can be found in the author’s instruction page here:

We invite original research and industry paper submissions in all areas of RE
including elicitation, modelling, analysis, specification, validation and management.
Following the categories of RE’15, we accept Technical Solution papers that describe
and validate better solutions to requirements problems, Scientific Evaluation papers
that evaluate existing problem situations or proposed solutions by scientific means
and Vision papers that explore successes and challenges of requirements practices,
or present research roadmaps. Industry submissions include application of RE
techniques in real-world settings, problems encountered in practice and reports on
innovative approaches to RE practice in industrial or government settings.
We invite original submissions in the following categories:

