Call for Fast Abstracts

 

A Fast Abstract (FA) paper is a two-page, lightly reviewed technical article. The FA track at ISSRE 2025 aims to bring together researchers and practitioners working in Software Reliability Engineering (SRE) to:

• introduce early original ideas;
• discuss relevant works-in-progress and ongoing e
xperiences;
• challenge the SRE status quo on key topics;
• present critical analyses of prior work;
• share lessons learned from real-world SRE applications;
• propose new problems from industrial or academic experience;
• describe approaches to problems of significance that may not yet have complete results.

Accepted contributions will be published in the Supplemental Proceedings of ISSRE 2025 and made available via IEEE Xplore.

Topics of Interest

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

• Reliability, safety, maintainability, security, survivability, resilience, robustness, and other dependability attributes;
• Faults (defects, bugs, etc.), errors, failures, and other dependability threats;
• Reliability of all systems, applications, networks, and software, including problems, solutions, and discussions;
• Metrics, measurement, assessment, monitoring, modeling, estimation, and prediction regarding reliability;
• Other contents about software reliability, such as normative/regulatory/ethical spaces, societal aspects, etc.

Presentations

Authors of accepted FA papers will be expected to present their work in a Fast Abstracts session at ISSRE 2025. In addition, authors of each accepted paper are required to prepare a poster, which will be exhibited during the conference. Further details about the presentation and poster size will be shared with accepted FAs upon notification.
