QuASoQ 2016

4th International Workshop on Quantitative Approaches to Software Quality

in conjunction with the 23rd Asia-Pacific Software Engineering Conference (APSEC 2016)
University of Waikato, Hamilton, New Zealand, 6th December 2016

Format of the Workshop

In order to have an interesting and interactive event sharing lots of experience, we plan to organize the workshop presentations as follows:
  • Papers are presented by one of he authors. After the presentation a discussant starts the discussion based on his pre-formulated questions. Therefore the discussant has to prepare a set of questions and has to know the details of the presented paper.
  • There is a slot of 30 minutes per paper.
  • The author of a paper has 15 minutes to present the paper.
  • After that, the discussant of the paper has 5 minutes to open the discussion using his questions.
  • Finally, 10 minutes remain for questions and discussion among the whole audience.

The workshop is over! Many thanks to everyone who contributed!
