SSBSE 2022

Welcome to the 14th Symposium on Search-Based Software Engineering!

Search-based Software Engineering (SBSE) is a research area focused on the formulation of software engineering problems as search problems, and the subsequent use of complex heuristic techniques to attain optimal solutions to such problems. A wealth of engineering challenges – from test generation, to design refactoring, to process organization – can be solved efficiently through the application of automated optimization techniques. SBSE is a growing field – sitting at the crossroads between AI, machine learning, and software engineering – and SBSE techniques have begun to attain human-competitive results.

The Symposium on Search-Based Software Engineering is a venue dedicated to the SBSE research field. We invite the submission of high-quality papers describing novel and original work in all areas of SBSE including, but not limited to, applications of SBSE to novel problems, theoretical analyses of search algorithms for software engineering, rigorous empirical evaluations of SBSE techniques, and reports of industrial experiences.

Proceedings (2022.11.17)

The conference proceedings are freely available online for four weeks starting from 17th November 2022 until 17th December 2022.

Registration Site is now open! (2022.10.20)

The registration for SSBSE 2022 is now open: https://conf.researchr.org/attending/ssbse-2022/ssbse-registration

SSBSE 2022 will be a real hybrid event: 17th November will be a physical event that is also served on the Whova platform, while 18th November will be a fully online day. We are currently working hard to reflect this into the registration system. You will be able to register for the physical conference (which includes the online second day), or also the full online program (only online access for both days).
