CALL FOR (VIRTUAL) PARTICIPATION
REFSQ 2021 -- 27th International Working Conference on
Requirements Engineering: Foundation for Software Quality
April 12 - 15, 2021, ONLINE Conference
https://www.refsq.org
====================================================================
The REFSQ working conference is the leading European conference series
on requirements engineering (RE). It is the goal of REFSQ to foster the
creation of a strong European RE community across industry and academia
since 1994.
This year REFSQ will take place as an Online Live Event from April 12th
till April 15th. The REFSQ 2021 special theme is "Ethics as a
cornerstone of Requirements Engineering", to emphasize the importance of
human values, such as privacy and fairness, when designing
software-intensive systems as well as the challenges that intelligent
and autonomous systems pose due to the tight interplay with humans.
