KKIO is a prime software engineering conference organized annually by Polish Information Processing Society. The language of the conference is English.
The aim of KKIO 2018 is to stimulate research, promote cooperation between science and industry, and facilitate a dialogue with governmental bodies. In particular, KKIO'19 will provide a forum for the presentation of research results, scientific challenges faced by the industry, scientific achievements that could address these problems. It will be also a platform to make contacts, initiate cooperation between researchers and engineers.
This year KKIO coincides with 30th anniversary of the Faculty of Computer Science, Bialystok University of Technology who also hosts KKIO. Bialystok is a quickly growing IT hub, surrounded by unspoiled nature, rivers, forests, with biggest population of European bisons living at large in wilderness.

We invite papers covering a wide range of software engineering topics including software methods & tools, innovative applications in emerging domains, technology transfer success stories and failures, education, and other topics listed on the conference web site.

Submission deadline: Abstract by 24 March 2019; Papers by 31 March 2019

Submission site: EasyChair https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=kkio2019

You will find all the submission details on the KKIO’19 web site (For Authors -) Submissions)

Accepted papers will be published in a dedicated monograph of the prestigious series Studies in Computational Intelligence (Springer):
Integrating Research and Practice in Software Engineering
The books of this series are submitted by Springer to WoS, EI-Compendex, DBLP, SCOPUS, Google Scholar and Springerlink.

Authors of the best papers will be invited to submit revised and extended versions of their submissions to high profile journals.
The authors of all high-quality papers that will not be accepted for dedicated volume of Studies in Computational Intelligence will be invited to prepare the extended version of the papers that will be published in Special Issue of Lecture Notes on Data Engineering and Communications Technologies (LNDECT), Springer (https://www.springer.com/series/15362). The books of this series are submitted to ISI Proceedings, MetaPress, Springerlink and DBLP.

Proceedings for the KKIO’16 and KKIO’17 are now indexed by Web of Science and Scopus.

Call for Special Sessions
The organizers of the conference are seeking Special Sessions / Workshop Proposals on topics complementary to those of the main conference and Panel, Training / Business Workshops, and Tutorial Proposals.
The responsibility of the Special Session / Workshop Chair(s) would be to prepare a specific Call for Papers, organize the sessions program committee (reviewers) and advertise the event. The special session should include at least three papers (if more papers are submitted it could have a form of an independent workshop). The papers are accepted based on two reviews provided by the Special Session PC members and one by a member of the KKIO Program Committee.
