Software Engineering Conference in Russia
October 27-28, 2005
Moscow, Russia
The software industry in Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, the Baltic
and other former Soviet Union countries has been expanding at
an astonishing rate and is expected to at least double over the
next 2 years. Not only companies are efficiently using software
to facilitate business, government and education locally, but
they are also finding similar success in the global markets by
capitalizing on the inherent scientific advantages of the former
Soviet Union education system. Innovative and successful technology
products are making way for software companies to define and reuse
effective technology, organizational and business practices such
as requirements, architectures, human capital, quality, and process
management. A number of software houses have been able to achieve
significant business process maturity levels and many are striving
to understand and apply global best practices in quality.
Meanwhile… the local universities are vastly disconnected from
the software industry, the governments play no active role in
developing the software industry, the industry and the software
academia are on the sidesteps of the global scientific collaboration,
shortages of quality software engineers inhibit company growth
and small teams and mid-sized companies have no practical access
to best industry practice and knowledge. But, most importantly,
the software development society is highly fragmented and has
virtually no means to share experiences and exchange knowledge.
There is no common forum to discuss the professional innovations
and challenges they are faced with.
Now, the wait is over!
RUSSOFT - the Russian National Association
of Software Development Companies and RUSSEE, the market leader
in education and consulting for the software industry are collaborating
in organizing the first Software Engineering Conference in Russia
– SEC(R) 2005.
SEC(R) 2005 will act as an international forum for in-depth
and substantive discussion on the emerging technologies and methodologies
being developed to overcome the challenges that exist in different
areas of software engineering. This conference has an ambition
to consolidate the local software professional community and to
integrate it into the international software society.
For the software companies this conference is a great opportunity
to present and observe the most recent innovations, trends, practices
and ideas in software engineering. For professionals it is a perfect
chance to get the latest technical information and insights from
Russian, European and US industry leaders and technical experts.
For scientists and academia this is a way to present their findings
and software research and find out the current industry needs
and standards.
Scope
The conference will offer an exciting program of events, including
keynote talks by leaders in the field, invited presentations along
specialized themes, workshops, round table discussions and presentations
of technical papers on software research, the cutting edge of
practice, and new developments in software engineering.
