These themes are intentionally generic to encompass a broad scope of coverage. DACS is always interested in articles that are case studies or lessons learned from practitioners experiences in these areas, or that provide data that can be used to further research. All of these topics are impacted by increases in size and complexity of software and the fact that the development environment now consists of many organizations working together to build systems that are continually evolving. There are significant challenges to be met in each area.
In addition to these themes DACS welcomes any articles that address topics defined in the Software Engineering Body of Knowledge, developing with open source, collaborative efforts and information sharing.
Some themes identified by the community but not specifically scheduled include:
- Software Maintenance
- Requirements Engineering
Are there topics that you think need to be addressed by the Journal of Software Technology because they are not receiving enough attention in the literature? DACS welcomes your suggestions.
