Please note the following

  • All lectures must be held in English.
  • Read the detailed Submission Conditions.
  • Complete the fields on the submission form. This makes it easier to evaluate your submission.
  • If possible, also upload an extended abstract (as pdf, doc, docx, txt). There are no specifications for its structuring.
  • Our General Event Conditions apply to any participation and cooperation.
     
  • Presentation with a strong orientation on the key-subject of the conference will be preferred.
  • Practical presentations with a co-lecturer from a customer organization will be preferred.
  • Presentations with an advanced or expert level will be preferred.
  • Focussed methodology-presentations, presentations with deeper insight or special topics will be preferred before general presentations. E.g. "Introduction in Agile Methodologies" will be lower rated than "The Role of the Product Owner in Scrum".
  • Lecturers which got a good rating and feedback on previous presentations at the International Software Quality Days will be preferred.
  • Lecturers who attend the International Software Quality Days for the first time will be preferred.
  • Lecturers with a broad experience in presenting (e.g. at other conferences) will be preferred.
  • Presentations of tool-vendors will not be accepted, if the own tool oder parts of the tool will be presented.
  • Presentations that are focussed on tools will be lower rated.
  • Submissions that lack significant informative parts (e.g. problem statement, questions to the participants, author's biography, etc.) are rated lower.
  • We want to present a diversified program to the participants of the conference. Thus presentations, that were held before the upcoming International Software Quality Days at a similar oriented conference in Germany, Austria or Switzerland, will be lower rated.
