*** Last Call for Papers (Industry Track) ***
37th IEEE International Symposium on Software Reliability Engineering
(ISSRE 2026)
October 20-23, 2026, 5* St. Raphael Resort and Marina
Limassol, Cyprus
https://cyprusconferences.org/issre2026/
The ISSRE Industry Track gathers industry representatives as well as researchers from,
within or in collaboration with industry to discuss software reliability, quality assurance as
well as experiences and lessons learned. This year we will bring experiences from self-
made tools, usage of AI, generative AI and machine learning in relation to software
reliability.
Industry track papers are expected to be of interest to software development
professionals, as well as to anyone researching or working in the area of software
reliability, software quality, and process improvement groups, with concrete relevance to
industrial problems and practical applications.
All presenters of accepted papers will be required to attend the conference in person.
Participating in the conference would give a chance to meet and discuss with a wide
selection of researchers and other industry experts in the area.
Topics of Interest
Topics of interest include development, analysis methods and models throughout the
software development lifecycle, from an industrial and practitioner-oriented perspective.
Ask yourself this: Is the work grounded in real-world systems, operational experience, or
industrial practice, and does it address reliability or dependability concerns? If it is, you
have found the right conference track. For a more detailed list check out the detailed
topics list for the research track on this site.
• Use cases, practical experiences, lessons learned, improvement programs in reliability
or dependability.
• Foundations of reliability and dependability, including process, technology, methods,
metrics and lessons learned.
• Design for reliability or dependability, failure and incident case studies, including
experiences in security, testing, verification, and related practices in the field.
• Reliability in AI-driven and autonomic systems or AI techniques used for Reliability
Engineering.
• Software reliability in any system domain.
• Trustworthiness, security, and Responsible Software Engineering.
• Human-centric focus on reliability and dependability.
• Adoption of reliability standards, measurements and similar experiences.
We look for papers with good evaluation, honest data, new insights and practical
experiences that can be used to help others. We also encourage submissions reporting
negative results, unexpected outcomes, and lessons learned from real-world practice.
Submission Guidelines and Instructions
We invite three kinds of submissions to the Industry Track:
• Enlightening Talk or Tool Demo: 1-2 page abstract (OR a Power Point presentation OR a
video for a tool demo).
• Short paper: 4-pages (including references).
• Full paper: 6-pages (including references).
All the submissions will be reviewed by members of the Industry Track Program
Committee. Accepted papers (with an abstract) will be included in the ISSRE Supplemental
Proceedings and submitted for publication to IEEE Xplore.
Papers are submitted via Easy Chair https://easychair.org/conferences?conf=issre2026 .
Submissions must adhere to the IEEE Computer Society Format Guidelines (for more
Information, please refer to the relevant part on the conference website:
https://cyprusconferences.org/issre2026/industry-track/).
Note that:
• A paper must include the title, the name and affiliation of each author, an abstract of up
to 150 words, and up to 4 keywords. Thus, submissions are not anonymous.
• Reviewers will use the abstract during the bidding process for peer-review. Thus, the
abstract should state the paper goals clearly, along with the means used to achieve them.
• The first page is not a separate page, but is a part of the paper (i.e., it has technical
material in it). Thus, this page counts toward the total page budget for the paper.
• Symbols and labels used in the graphs should be readable as printed, without requiring
on-screen magnification.
• Limit the file size to less than 15 MB (for Video’s – provide a live link).
Papers that exceed the page limits specified, on topics not in the scope of ISSRE, or that
do not follow the formatting guidelines will be rejected without review.
Authors of accepted papers will have the chance to present their work at ISSRE 2026.
Submission implies the willingness of at least one of the authors to register for the
conference and to give the talk, if the paper is accepted.
Best Paper Awards
The Industry Program Chair will select three candidates among top-ranked papers
presenting and motivating novel and disruptive ideas that address problems relevant for
industry. Selection will be based on the reviewers’ feedback, novelty and potential impact
of the results.
The final selection of the best paper will be done by the audience attending the
presentation of the candidate papers. Eligible papers must be (1) full papers accepted to
the industry track, and (2) co-authored by at least one author whose primary affiliation is
in Industry.
