Overview

Now in its twelfth year, REFSQ is a highly interactive forum for researchers and practitioners to address the problem of ensuring software quality through requirements engineering (RE).

The last decade has seen improvements in our understanding of RE with better practices supported by better techniques, methods and tools. Despite these successes, many quality-related problems remain, while new challenges for RE constantly emerge.

REFSQ seeks reports of innovative work in RE that contributes to the achievement of higher software quality. In particular, we encourage people from the requirements engineering, software engineering, information systems, and embedded systems fields to present their approaches to RE. Contributions from related areas such as formal methods, systems engineering, economics and management and social sciences are especially welcome.
