Requirements Engineering Track, 10th Edition
[http://www.cin.ufpe.br/~sac17-re/] at the 32nd Annual ACM Symposium on
Applied Computing (SAC-2017) Marrakech, Morocco April 3-7, 2017

For over thirty years, the ACM Symposium on Applied Computing (SAC) has
been a primary gathering forum for applied computer scientists, computer
engineers, software engineers, and application developers from around
the world.

The 10th Edition of the Requirements Engineering Track (RE-Track'17) is
part of the 32nd ACM Symposium on Applied Computing. SAC 2017 is hosted
by the University of Quebec at Montreal, Canada, the University Cadi
Ayyad (UCA) of Marrakech, Morocco, the Mohamed V University of Rabat -
Mohammadia School Of Engineers (EMI), Rabat Morocco and the National
School of Applied Sciences (ENSA) of Kenitra, Morocco.

The objective of this track is to explore different advances in
Requirements Engineering in a general way, its relation with different
areas, reducing the gap between software engineering solutions and the
way one specific domain of knowledge was seen up to given point.


Important Dates
═══════════════

October 10, 2016: Submission of papers and SRC research abstracts
November 10, 2016: Notification of paper and SRC acceptance/rejection
November 25, 2016: Camera-ready copies of accepted papers/SRC
December 10, 2016: Author registration due date


Paper Submission
════════════════

Authors are invited to submit in all areas of Requirements
Engineering. The program committee will blindly review submissions to
that track. The author(s) name(s) and address(es) must not appear in
the body of the paper, and self-reference should be in third
person. This is to facilitate blind review. The paper should not
exceed 6 pages in the ACM format. Please find the template here:
[https://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template].

Please note that the maximum page length for the conference is 6 pages
(without extra-fee), 8 is the maximum (with extra-fee). Submissions
should be printable on a standard printer on common paper formats,
such as US letter and A4.

Papers should not be submitted to more than one ACM-SAC track. Paper
submissions should be done electronically through the following
websites:
• (for regular papers) [https://www.softconf.com/h/sac2017/]
• (for SRC papers) [https://www.softconf.com/h/sac-src2017/].

Paper registration is required, allowing the inclusion of the
paper/poster in the conference proceedings. An author or a proxy
attending SAC MUST present the paper. This is a requirement for the
paper/poster to be included in the ACM/IEEE digital library. No-show
of registered papers and posters will result in excluding them from
the ACM/IEEE digital library.


Student Competition
═══════════════════

Active graduate students seeking feedback from the scientific
community on their research ideas are invited to submit abstracts of
their original unpublished and in-progress research work in areas of
experimental computing and application development related to SAC 2017
Tracks. Please visit SAC 2017 website at
http://www.sigapp.org/conferences/sac/sac2017/ .
