  • Requirements engineering education and training;
  • Requirements engineering for specific software development paradigms, e.g., agent-driven, aspect-driven, model-driven, or service-driven;
  • Requirements engineering for specific fields, e.g., safety-critical, web-based, or mobile application systems;
  • Requirements engineering in agile methodologies;
  • Requirements specification languages, methods, processes, and tools;
  • Model-driven software engineering;
  • Regulatory compliance.

Submission Guidelines

All papers must be submitted through the Easychair submission system in PDF format only, following LNCS format.

Submissions must be written in Portuguese, Spanish, or English.

Submissions to the Regular Resesarch Track must present original results on all aspects of Requirements Engineering from the research, teaching, and industrial viewpoints. The selection process will consider applicability and relevance to Requirements Engineering, originality, and clarity.

The WER-RT uses a double-blind review process. All sumbissions (and supplemental materials) must be appropriately anonymized in comliance with the following guidelines:

  • Authors' names and affiliations must not be visible anywhere in the paper;
  • Acknowledgements must be anonymized or removed for the review process.
  • Self-citations should be included where necessary but must use the third person. For example, "as shown in our previos user study [2]" is not allowed, while "as shown in Smith et al. [2]" is acceptable. (In this case, citation [2] does NOT break anonymization).
  • Logos and other organizational affiliations in images must be blurred.

Follow these guidelines to prevent submissions from being desk-rejected.

Full papers should not exceed 14 pages following LNCS page format.

Any paper that exceeds the page limit, lies beyond the scope of the conference, or does not follow the formatting guidelines will be desk-rejected.

All accepted papers will be published with Open Access through the WERpapers repository.
