FAMECSE 2022: Federated Africa and Middle East Conference on Software Engineering Virtual in hybrid-form Egypt-Uganda, Egypt, June 7-8, 2022

The Africa and Middle East Conference on Software Engineering (AMECSE) and Software Engineering in Africa (SEiA) conference have joined forces and grew into the so-called Federated Africa and Middle East Conference on Software Engineering (FAMECSE). FAMECSE aims at promoting and strengthening the SE community in Africa and the Middle East by gathering practitioners and researchers to present and share the most recent innovations, trends, experiences and concerns in the field of Software Engineering of interest to the region.

 The theme of the first Federated African and Middle East Conference on Software Engineering (FAMECSE) is Software Engineering in the Era of Artificial Intelligence. FAMECSE 2022 conference aims at exploring how innovation in software engineering can support Artificial Intelligence development, and how AI can provide innovative solutions to advance Software Engineering practices and techniques. 

AI is more of a contextual rather than a subject-specific focus for submission.

FAMECSE 2022 is organized In-Cooperation with the ACM SIGSOFT.

FAMECSE 2022 accepted papers will be published in the ACM Conference Proceedings Series (ACM-ICPS) with ISBN 978-1-4503-9663-9.  

Submission Guidelines

We solicit high quality contributions in one or more of the following three types of submissions.  

· Technical Papers limited to 10 pages describing technical research results.

· Short Papers limited to 4 pages describing preliminary results/work-in-progress.

· Tutorials are short lectures delivered by leaders in industry or academia to provide hands-on experience  in new and emerging technologies and tools.

 Submissions must be original and NOT have been previously published or currently under review elsewhere. Submissions will be evaluated based on the scientific quality, relevance for the African continent as well as the global software engineering community. All papers must follow the ACM format that can be found in the following link: ACM Primary Article Template
