CALL FOR PAPERS

Track 5: Software, System and Service Engineering (S3E'21; 
https://fedcsis.org/2021/s3se)

Organized within 2021 Federated Conference on Computer Science and 
Intelligence Systems (FedCSIS'21; IEEE #52320)

************************* COVID-19 Information *************************

While we have planned the 2021 conference to take place in Sofia, 
Bulgaria, slow progress in fighting the global pandemic has forced us to 
switch to the fully online mode. Therefore, we plan to organize FedCSIS 
2022 in Sofia, and hope that by that time COVID will be over, and we 
will be able to meet in person.

The S3E track emphasizes the issues relevant to developing and 
maintaining software systems that behave reliably, efficiently and 
effectively. This track investigates both established traditional 
approaches and modern emerging approaches to large software production 
and evolution.

For decades, it is still an open question in software industry, how to 
provide fast and effective software process and software services, and 
how to come to the software systems, embedded systems, autonomous 
systems, or cyber-physical systems that will address the open issue of 
supporting information management process in many, particularly complex 
organization systems. Even more, it is a hot issue how to provide a 
synergy between systems in common and software services as mandatory 
component of each modern organization, particularly in terms of IoT, Big 
Data, and Industry 4.0 paradigms.

In recent years, we are the witnesses of great movements in the area of 
software, system and service engineering (S3E). Such movements are both 
of technological and methodological nature. By this, today we have a 
huge selection of various technologies, tools, and methods in S3E as a 
discipline that helps in a support of the whole information life cycle 
in organization systems. Despite that, one of the hot issues in practice 
is still how to effectively develop and maintain complex systems from 
various aspects, particularly when software components are crucial for 
addressing declared system goals, and their successful operation. It 
seems that nowadays we have great theoretical potentials for application 
of new and more effective approaches in S3E. However, it is more likely 
that real deployment of such approaches in industry practice is far 
behind their theoretical potentials.
The main goal of Track 5 is to address open questions and real 
potentials for various applications of modern approaches and 
technologies in S3E so as to develop and implement effective software 
services in a support of information management and system engineering. 
We intend to address interdisciplinary character of a set of theories, 
methodologies, processes, architectures, and technologies in disciplines 
such as: Software Engineering Methods, Techniques, and Technologies, 
Cyber-Physical Systems, Lean and Agile Software Development, Design of 
Multimedia and Interaction Systems, Model Driven Approaches in System 
Development, Development of Effective Software Services and Intelligent 
Systems, as well as applications in various problem domains. We invite 
researchers from all over the world who will present their 
contributions, interdisciplinary approaches or case studies related to 
modern approaches in S3E. We express an interest in gathering scientists 
and practitioners interested in applying these disciplines in industry 
sector, as well as public and government sectors, such as healthcare, 
education, or security services. Experts from all sectors are welcomed.
