Requirements Engineering (RE) lies at the heart of software development.
It is the branch of systems engineering concerned with the real-world
goals for, functions of, and constraints on software-intensive systems.
It is concerned with how these factors are taken into account during the
implementation and maintenance of the system, from software specifications
and architectures up to final test cases. RE requires a variety and richness
of skills, processes, methods, techniques and tools. In addition, diversity
arises from different application domains ranging from business information
systems to real-time process control systems, from traditional to web-based
systems as well as from the perspective being system families or not.
The conference will include a technical and an industrial paper track,
with refereed papers describing novel research, industrial problem statements,
experience reports and surveys. The program also includes keynote speakers,
state-of-the-art and practice tutorials, and an exhibition, which includes
companies with RE tools and services, book publishers, and other related
exhibitors. We also will have several associated workshops, including
a doctoral workshop for PhD students, as well as research demos and
tools. The RE'03 conference will provide an opportunity for practitioners
and researchers to share ideas and experiences, while enjoying the beautiful
Monterey with the Monterey Bay Aquarium, Fisherman's Wharf and Cannery
Row. Enjoy the spectacular sights of Monterey Peninsula at Big Sur,
explore Point Lobos in Carmel-by-the-Sea and visit Carmel Mission.
