SERI 2025

The Software Engineering Research in India (SERI) Update Meetings conducted annually, are informal events, with the aim of bringing together faculty, students, industrial researchers, and practitioners working in software engineering, to present and discuss advances in their areas of interest. The 2025 edition of SERI update meet will be hosted by National Institute of Technology Warangal Telangana India. This will be an in-person meeting, spanning July 11th and 12th.

Talks will delve into foundational aspects, algorithms, approaches, or experiences, focusing on novel or interesting insights, relating to any aspect of software engineering such as requirements, design, development, analysis, testing, verification, or deployment.

One can take part in SERI in two ways.

1. By Submitting a talk proposal: You are invited to submit a talk proposal. For details, please goto Call-for-Proposal

2. Without submitting any proposals: You are invited to participate as an attendee through registration.

The proposals can target a foundational aspect, algorithm, approach, or experience, focusing on novel or interesting insights, relating to any aspect of software engineering such as requirements, design, development, analysis, testing, verification, deployment, or maintenance.

The submitted proposal could be based on prior published work or ongoing work. The submission is in the form of an extended abstract of up to 300 words, and an optional 1-page write-up as a pdf file (preferably in ACM sigconf template ).

Proposal submission, review and accept/reject notification is managed using Microsoft CMT.

Please create an account in Microsoft CMT and submit your proposal using this link: Call for Proposal

The submission follows a single-blind review process, and evaluation criteria include relevance to the workshop theme, technical soundness, significance, presentation, and the ability of the work to spark discussion among the audience of SERI.

Attending SERI: You can attend SERI without proposal submission/acceptance. Please check the website for updates on attending SERI after April 15th 2025.
