/EINPresswire.com/ More than 1200 software engineering researchers and practitioners from all over the world will meet in San Francisco from May 18 to 26, 2013 to exchange research results, experiences, and challenges in software engineering.

ICSE is the premier software engineering conference and is the oldest, most well-established conference in this area. It is traditionally held in a different location around the world. San Francisco, however, has the notable honor of being the only city that ICSE has been held in twice (the previous occurrence was in 1976).

The planning for ICSE 2013 was started more than three years ago under the leadership of Prof. David Notkin from University of Washington’s Department of Computer Science and Engineering, a highly distinguished and respected scholar, educator, and mentor in the international software engineering community. Sadly, Prof. Notkin recently passed away due to terminal cancer and will not be able to see the fruits of his labors. But the organization team with whom he had been working closely until his death, will realize his vision of making ICSE 2013 an extraordinary event offering cutting-edge, high quality content combined with many opportunities to connect and network across the international software engineering community.

The keynotes are:
Tony DeRose from Pixar Research Group, broadly known in academia and industry in the field of computer graphics, with interests in how to make science, technology, math, and engineering more inspiring and relevant for middle and high school students;
Linda Northrop from the Software Engineering Institute at Carnegie Mellon University, a highly-respected researcher with interests in architecture-centric engineering, software product lines, cyber-physical systems, advanced mobile systems, and ultra-large scale systems;
Pamela Samuelson from University of California, Berkeley, a recognized pioneer in digital copyright law, intellectual property, cyberlaw, and information policy.

The conference includes tracks for technical research, software engineering education, software engineering in practice, new ideas and emerging results, a broad set of workshops and tutorials, demonstrations, posters, social activities, and other engaging activities for the international software engineering research and academic community. ICSE 2013 also features many highly-respected speakers as keynotes in the workshops or conference tracks. Several collocated events provide further opportunities for the software engineering community to exchange results and best practices.
