The objective of the ICSE 2016 Demonstrations Track is to excite the software engineering community about new advances in our field through compelling demonstrations that help advance research and practice. The track is a highly interactive venue where researchers and practitioners can demonstrate their tools and discuss them with attendees.
Tool-based demonstrations describe novel aspects of early prototypes or mature tools. The tool demonstrations must communicate clearly the following information to the audience:
Highlighting scientific contributions through concrete artifacts is a critical supplement to the traditional ICSE research papers. A demonstration provides the opportunity to communicate how the scientific approach has been implemented or how a specific hypothesis has been assessed, including details such as implementation and usage issues, data models and representations, APIs for tool and data access. Authors of regular research papers are thus also encouraged to submit an accompanying demonstration paper.
Each submission will be reviewed by at least three members of the demonstrations selection committee.
The evaluation criteria include:
Submissions must conform to the ICSE 2016 formatting and submission instructions.
In particular, submissions of demonstrations papers must meet the following criteria:
Authors of successful submissions will have the opportunity to revise both the paper and the video
(and its hosting location) by the camera-ready deadline. The paper will be published in
the ICSE 2016 Companion Proceedings and in the ACM and IEEE digital libraries.
The official publication date of the proceedings is the date the proceedings are made available
in the ACM Digital Library. This date may be up to two weeks prior to the first day of the conference.
The official publication date affects the deadline for any patent filings related to published work.
