QuASoQ 2018

6th International Workshop on Quantitative Approaches to Software Quality

in conjunction with the 25th Asia-Pacific Software Engineering Conference (APSEC 2018)
Nara, Japan, 4th December 2018


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 to know the details of the presented paper.
  • There is a slot of 30 minutes per paper.
  • The author of a paper has 20 minutes to present the paper.
  • After that, the discussant of the paper has 5 minutes to open the discussion using his questions.
  • Finally, 5 minutes remain for questions and discussion among the whole audience.

The workshop will take place in Conference Room 6, building ANNEX (1st floor)

The registration on the workshop day will start at 8:30!
