Conference Program
RE'13 offers an extensive program of interest to both academia and industry including five distinguished keynote speakers and three conference days full of papers, panels, posters, as well as varied RE Interactive sessions to get involved, try things out, and have your say. RE Interactive sessions are designed for industry and academia. A series of exciting tutorials and mini-tutorials to develop skills in and advance awareness of requirements engineering practices is of particular interest to industry. Furthermore, the RE@21 paper series looks at the contributions of the RE Conference and the future of RE including invited presentations by past and this year's Most Influential Paper award winners. The main conference is preceded by two days of workshops, ER@BR, and the doctoral symposium.
